Ponganalu is very tast snack.I have learnt this from my Mom-Inlaw.It can be made either with dosa batter or idly batter. I usually make ponganalu with idly batter.Idly is like a boon to us.With Idly batter one can make many tiffins.
1. Idly
2. Idly Upma
3. Ponganalu
4. Uttapam

This is how Ponganalu pan/Skillet looks like



Once the batter is ready i use it for 4 days in my house.Preparing different items,everyone is happy!!!.Its easily comes to 2-4days.It depends on the quantity though.

There is no precise amounts of ingredients.It all depends on the quantity of batter you take.

Procedure for the batter:

Take the idly batter add salt,pinch turmeric,cumin seeds,finely chopped onions,finely sliced green chillies,finely chopped coriander,grated carrot peas,grates fresh coconut,.You can add any kind of vegetables.Even grated coconut gives good taste.
Mix all the ingredients and keep aside.

4. Turn one and see, if it is golden brown then turn all of them to the other side.
and let it be on medium flame for about 3-4mins.
