Background

This recipe of guntha ponganalu takes me down the memory lane, as kids we used to enjoy a similar version, famously known as punugulu. one of those simple yet tasty dishes to have as a delicious snack.

Ingredients

1 cup raw rice
½ cup black gram lentils
1 onion finely chopped
3 green chillies chopped
½ inch ginger finely chopped
½ tsp cumin seeds
Salt to taste
Oil

Instructions

Wash and soak rice and black gram separately for 3 hours. Grind them together into a pouring consistency. Cover and keep aside overnight.
Mix all the ingredients except oil in the fermented batter.
To prepare this you need ponganalu pan. Place the pan on stove and keep it on medium flame and put oil in each impression.
When the skillet is hot, take small ladle full of batter and fill the impressions with batter.
Cover and cook for 5 minutes on low flame till brown spots appear at the edges.
Gently flip the ponganalu with a spoon and cook for some more time.
Repeat the process till the batter is done.
Serve hot with any chutney or tomato sauce.
