Beat the butter till fluffy and add it to a wide bowl. Seive the flour to the same bowl. Add sugar & baking soda. Mix well. Add the fresh orange juice and mix well avoiding lump formation.

The batter should be of semi thick consistency. To attain the right consistency milk can be added. Brush butter to the paniyaram pan and pour the batter evenly into each pit & tap it gently. Cover the lid.

Set a shallow pan on medium flame and place the paniyaram pan atop. (Alternatively the paniyaram pan can be cooked directly on the flame too). Cook for 10 min and lower the flame. Cook for another 5 min. Open the lid & brush some more butter and flip the orange mini's. Cook the other side for 5 mins in low flame.Switch off the flame. Tasty orange mini's are ready to be served.
