Appam is a very healthy dish....Basically it is a steamed dish, so not much oil is involved in this cooking...This is my family's favorite breakfast or dinner(yes we have it for both).....
Appam is a dish made mostly out of rice....They have very less Dal in them...So I thought of contributing it for JFI - Rice.....
Traditionally appam is served with coconut milk....But I like to spice it up by serving appam with mutton korma....They both pair amazing...
Ingredients :
For Appam
Parboiled Rice - 1 cup
Raw Rice - 1 cup
Urad dal - 2 tablespoon
Fenugreek - 1 teaspoon
Baking soda - 1/4 teaspoon
Salt - As required
Procedure :
1. Soak both the rice, urad dal along with fenugreek for 3 hours or more.
2. Now add enough water and grind the mixture into a fine liquid. It should be little watery than regular dosa batter.
3. Now add salt and ferment it for over night.
4. Add baking soda and mix well, now the batter is ready for making appams.
5. Appam can be made in appam pan or in a small size skillet.
6. Pour a ladle of appam batter and swirl it around the skillet and cover it with a lid and wait for 2 mins and remove form pan.

2. When the fennel seeds start to change the colour add the chopped onions and green chills and fry for 2 mins.

Your version of making appam slightly different from the ones that I have come across recently. Most of them use yeast and not urad dal or baking soda. Looks yummy buddy. Thanks for yet another delicious recipe.

Hi Happy cook...

hi
I tried this one but give me your comments based on the mistakes i did.
1)The appams back has spots like we have in chapathi ,But the taste and crispiness was there.
2)I felt the middle part was hard for me,I want it to be softer.What could I have posssible done wrong.
3)My batter was little thick,But it swirled perfectly in the pan and got crispier oside and thick iside can I add water b4 making appams.
