Palappam With Coconut Milk Powder
Lacy edges, spongy centre — appam is fermented rice batter swirled in a curved pan until it forms a bowl-shaped pancake. The slight tang from fermentation pairs perfectly with a coconut stew or egg curry.
Ingredientsfor 5 servings
- 2 cup Raw rice (Pachari)
- 1 cup Coconut Milk Powder
- Kappi (Take 2 tbsp of the ground raw rice, add 1 cup of water and — cook till it becomes thick. let it cool and then grind this with the rest. or we can add 1 cup of cooked rice instead of "kappi")
- 1/2 tsp Yeast
- Sugar, to taste
- Salt A pinch
Preparation
Step 1
Soak raw rice for 6-7 hrs.
Step 2
Grind the soaked rice to a fine paste, along with the yeast, sugar and "kappi" and keep it overnight.
Step 3
Next day add 1 cup of thick Maggi coconut milk powder, sugar(1 tbsp) and salt to the batter and keep for 2 hrs.
Step 4
The batter will be ready to make appams after 2 hrs.
Tip
The fermented batter is the heart of good appam. Give it at least 8 hours to rise — overnight is best. The slight sourness is what makes appam special.
