Stuffed Meen Pathiri

Pathiri is a pancake made of rice flour. It is part of the local cuisine among  the Mappilas of North Malabar and Malabar in Kerala State of Southern India. Crushed rice is made into a white dough and baked on pans called oadu.Variants of pathiri include neypathiri (made with ghee), poricha pathiri (fried rather than baked), meen pathiri (stuffed with fish), and irachi pathiri (stuffed with meat). Meen pathiris are steamed pancakes filled with a spicy fish masala but here in my recipe, I have them pan fried.
