Ragi Nei Appam / Finger Millet Ghee Paniyaram | Karthigai Deepam Recipes

Appam is the food for karthigai deepam. This karthigai deepam why not prepare a healthy millet based appam. The next step is why not avoid deep frying also. My suggestion is Ragi appam / Paniyaram because instead of deep frying we can prepare with paniyaram pan. This is all time snack which will last for more than 2 days at room temperature.
