Appam Made Easy Recipe

Who likes eating Appam? I do because it is tasty, healthy and light. It is an all time favourite breakfast.

Appam is a type of pancake made with fermented rice batter and coconut milk. It is popular in Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka.

I would like to thank my Sri Lankan friend, Pauline for giving me a seasoned Appam pan and sharing with me the following easy recipe making Appam.

Ingredients

 


(A)

½ box rice flour

½ cup self raising flour

1 tsp sugar

½  tsp instant yeast

¾ cup room temperature water

(B)

250 gm coconut cream (Kara brand)

¼ tsp salt
 

Gula Melaka

Fresh grated coconut
 

Procedure

Sift both the flour. Combine ingredients A until it forms a thick batter.

thick batter


Cover and keep aside overnight for fermentation.


The batter will rise and increase in volume the next day.

Overnight fermentation

Add coconut cream and salt into the batter. Stir and mix well.

Heat an Appam pan and grease it lightly with oil.

Pour a ladle full of batter into the pan and slowly rotate the pan in circular motion so that a thin layer forms on the side while the middle remains thick.

Cover with lid and let it cook.

Serve hot.

I love to devour my hot Appam with gula Melaka and grated coconut.
