Egg Paniyaram in a Tamarid gravy

I wanted to make some different for some egg lovers in my house,so instead of doing the  Mutta Kulambu,wanted to do something different.So made some Egg paniyarams and dunked in a tamarid gravy.I let it boil for 2 min,it soaked all the juice and boy it was quite tasty.Will definitely make it again.

               Serve with hot rice,pappad.I just used 2 eggs to get 12 paniyarams to serve people of four,so u get it.I added only 8 paniyarams in the gravy i didnt want it to be crowded,and it was quite filling.So make sure how much you want to add in the gravy.
