    I love Appams, it was no wonder that I jumped in when Amma said she has another version of doing it. Making Appam has an added advantage as my kids love Appams along with Tomato Kurma. This version of Appam was the breakfast for Sunday and kids jumped with joy!

    Yogiratna makes another delicious side dish for Appam

    Appam

    Ingredients Needed:

    Raw Rice - 2 cups
    Coconut Milk - 1 cup
    Coconut Water - 1 cup
    Sugar - 1 tsp (opt)
    Salt to taste
    Cooking Soda - a pinch

    Method to prepare:

    Fermenting the Coconut Water

    We normally add sugar to the coconut water for mild sweetness to the appams. You can avoid this if you want. This is done along the same time you soak your rice, about 4 -5 hrs.

    Grinding the batter

    Soak the rice for 4 -5 hrs and grind to a smooth batter in a grinder.
    To the batter add fresh Coconut milk to the batter.
    Let it ferment overnight.

    Just before making the appams, add soda.

    Appam

      I've never had appams, but have seen many recipes online. Yours looks fluffy and delicious. Does the coconut milk have to fresh or can I use canned milk?? tks.
      Enjoy your weekend Valli.

      Pavani, I guess the canned coconut milk will also have the same taste if not exactly? Otherwise try the other recipe, that comes might be easier for you if you don't have coconut milk
