1. Take all the flours in a mixing bowl.
2. Add chopped veggies and mix well. Set aside for 5 minutes.

The batter should not be runny. It should be scoop-able by hand or spoon. There is no need for any baking soda or fruit salt here.
4. Heat a paniyarakal or aebleskiver pan and grease with few drops of oil in all moulds.
5. Spoon in the prepared batter once the pan is hot. Again add just few drops of oil in each mould on the spooned batter. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
6. Flip each fritter and cook for 2-3 minutes. Cooking takes time as we are doing it in medium flame with less oil. Cook flipping frequently till the fritters are golden brown and well cooked.
