Oats Veggie Kuzhipaniyaram Using Leftover Dosa/Idly Batter


Everyone must be familiar with the Health facts of Oats coz of media Advertisement related to Beta glucan and nowadays it has become one of the must buy thing in monthly grocery lists. Apart from  Porridge, Oats can be used to prepare lots of delicious recipes and personally I  use powdered Oats to substitute bread crumbs while preparing Fried goodies. And coming to Today's recipe, Oats and Potato was the two secret Ingredients given in "Shhhh Secretley Cooking Challenge" hosted by Priya Suresh from "Priya's Versatile Recipes". 
I had included Carrot and Potato in this recipe but other veggies can also be included like peas, grated cabbage etc. These yummy balls can be served with Tomato Chutney, Coconut chutney or Sambhar and it's a perfect breakfast recipe to start a day with lots of energy. This can also be served as Evening snacks for kids.


Here is the recipe....
