  1. Soak rice, ukda chawal and urad dal with fenugreek seeds in six cups of water for at least five hours. Drain and grind. Ensure that the batter is not too smooth. Add salt, mix well and allow it to ferment overnight.
  2. Heat two teaspoons oil in a pan, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, curry leaves, onion and green chillies. Sauté for two to three minutes. Add tempering to the batter. Mix well.
  3. Heat the paniyaram tawa over medium heat and grease each dent with a little oil. Pour a ladleful of batter in each dent, drizzle oil and cook for four to five minutes till the underside is done.
  4. Turn them over using a spoon and drizzle a little more oil and continue to cook for three to four minutes or until both the sides are evenly cooked. Prepare more paniyarams similarly.
  5. Serve hot with chutney.
