Aapam by Vijiram

My version of appam.. raw rice 1 cup + idly rice 1 cup - 1/4 of urad dal - soak for 3 hrs and grind nice. dont add salt. let it ferment for a nite or 8 hrs minim. when you r gonna make appam make a very nice paste of cocount - one cup and just add that batter, now add salt, sugar mix well leave it for 20 mints - ready to do. inthis method you wont feel heavy or oily. some time appam makes you feel slepy like pongal. inthis method you can avoid that and you can get a roast appam even if you want.

Soak 250 gm of good quality pacharisi overnight.in the morning,grind it with one coconut till very fine.ferment it overnight.1/2 an hour before making appams,add baking soda,salt and a little sugar.the batter should be runny,use thin coconut milk to dilute the batter.now make appams.you will get pure white coloured lace-rimmed appams!
