Notes

The oil should be hot enough to fry the paniyaram but it should not make them golden so adjust the flame accordingly.
Amount of chillies can be increased or decreased as per ur taste.
For colour I have added half and half kashmiri with the ordinary red ones.
The consistency of the batter should be thin but not watery.
