Instructions
- Drain the water from the masoor dal and grind it into a coarse paste by adding little water.
- Transfer the paste into a bowl and add salt and turmeric powder. Mix well.
- Heat a kuzhi paniyaram pan and drop a spoonful of batter into each cavity. Drop a few drops of oil in each cavity. Flip when the bottom portion is browned well. Brown both sides evenly.

- Now add the kokum water (in which kokum has been soaked) and some more water, sugar. Let it simmer for a minute.
- Mix flour in 2 tbsp water and make a paste. Add it into the pan. Stir it well to avoid lumps
- Add fritters into the pan and let it simmer for 2 more minutes

Notes
Boiled and mashed potatoes, lauki can also be added into the gravy.
