Anjarisi Panniyaram (Five Rice Fritters)


Anjarisi Panniyaram is a Chettinaad Special Snack. The ingredient uses 5 rice varieties  and that is the reason it has this name.

You need :
Boiled Rice - 1 cup
Raw Rice - 1 cup
Paasi Paruppu - 1 cup (Yellow Moong Dal)
Javvarisi -   1/2 cup (Sabudhana)
Rava  -  1 cup
Sugar - 1 1/2  cups
Jaggery -  2  cups

Method of Preparation
1. Wash and soak both rice and paasi paruppu together for 2 hours.
2. Wash and wet the Sabudhana 1 hour later
3. Soak rava with little water 1/2 hour before grinding.
4. Now, after 2 hours, grind all soaked items except rava.
5. After grinding the ingredients well, add rava , jaggery and sugar and grind for a little amount of time.

6. Now, the batter consistency should be thin than dosa batter. Make this batter on the day before you are 
    going to make the panniyarams and keep in the refridgerator.
7. The next day, take the batter out 1/2 hour before making panniyarams, so that the batter comes to 
     room temperature.
8. Heat oil in small kadai, as you can make only one panniyaram at a time.
9. Use laddle and pour into the oil. keep the flame in medium . As soon as you pour the batter, keep 
    splashing the oil on the panniyaram, then turn it over and remove after 2 seconds.


10. The hot panniyarams are ready to eat. Hmmmm.. Yummy............

Significance of Pillayar Nonbu

Pillayar nombu is a nombu celebrated exclusively by Naattukkottai Nagarathars. This post is intended for young chettiar couples living far from their families, who want to know about this nonbu and celebrate it at home. The significance of performing this nombu, is that we pray to Lord Ganesha, requesting him to remove all the obstacles in our life.  I have heard that there are 3 versions of the story behind this nonbu. I am sharing the one that my mom has told me... A teenage girl was ill-treated by her step-mother. On karthigai deepam day, this step-mother's diamond ring was missing and she accused this girl of stealing her ring. This girl went to a pillayar temple and prayed to Lord Ganesha that she will prove herself as innocent and find the ring. So she started saying her prayers to Lord Ganesha, by removing one thread a day from her cotton saree for 21 days. She promised to the God that, when she proves her innocence, she will make the number of threads she has on that day as

Pillayar Nombu ellai maavu

Pillayar Nombu is celebrated in honour of God Pillayar  (Ganesha) by the Chettiars  on the 21st day after the Thirukkaarthigai Deepam, when Sashti Thithi and Sadayam (also called Shatabhisha) Nakshathra come on the same day. In US, it comes on Dec 26th, 2014. To make the ellai maavu , you will need Raw Rice - 1 cup Jaggery grated - 1/2 cup To prepare the rice flour, first soak the rice in water for 2 to 3 hours. Then drain the water and spread it on a paper towel or white cloth and let it dry for 20 minutes. Now, the when the rice is still wet, grind it in a mixie , into a powder. Sieve it and collect the coarse powder and grind it again and seive it. Repeat this until very less coarse powder is left.                                     In a pan, put the jaggery and add 2 tbsp of water and heat it until the jaggery dissolves completely. Now, sieve it in a tea strainer and collect the jaggery syrup. It should neither be too thick nor too thin.
