Take a bowl, add all the ingredients including the boiled tapioca and mix well. Check for salt as well. Add water to make a thick batter.
Heat a kuzhi paniyaram pan for pan frying the punugulu. Add a teaspoon of oil in each of the cavities. Spoon the batter into each of the cavities and fry them until brown and crisp.
You can add a little more oil on the punugulu if you like it crispy. Once one batch of the punugulu are done, remove from the pan and drain in the paper towel.
