Today I have come up with Appam So take white raw rice washed and soaked in water for 6 hours
2 cups or 440 grams of white raw rice
So to grind take a grinder and add half of it now
Here I've added half of it
Add 3/4 cup or 180 ML of coconut water
Grind finely
Here I've ground it finely
After that strain it a bowl
Now grind the remaining rice
Add the remaining rice also
Add 1/2 cup or 125 ML of water
Grind finely
After that strain it
Strain it in the bowl
The reason for straining it is even though we have ground rice finely but there may be unwanted particles so to remove it we're straining it
Here it is after grinding
Add 1 Tbsp or 15 grams of sugar, the reason for adding sugar is to get the appam's nicely golden brown color
Add baking powder 1 1/2 Tsp or 7 grams and mix well
Mix well, because sugar needs to dissolve well
After mixing, I'm going to cover it with a plate and turn on the oven light and keep it for 6-8 hours to ferment
Here it is I've kept the appam mix in the oven to ferment it took me 7 1/2 hours
As you can see it has fermented well and water is floating on the top
Lightly remove the excess water
Discard this water, here it should ferment like this
It is nice airy and bubbly, if the time I said wasn't enough keep it further to ferment
Appam flour has fermented well
So after fermenting like this, Add 1 Tsp of salt (add accordingly)
Add 1st extracted thick coconut milk 1/4 cup or + 1 Tbsp and mix well
I've added the coconut milk and now mix well
1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp of coconut milk is enough and it should be in this consistency
Take appam pan and keep a ring because when cooking on the stove it will help to spread heat perfectly
Bring the heat to less than medium flame and now we will make this appam
Mix it well when using because its rice flour so it can get thick quickly
With the use of a paper towel apply oil to the pan
Cover and let it cook
Now its been cooking for 1 minute, open the lid and clean the water in it because if the water drops on the appams it will be difficult to take it out
Again cover and cook for 4 minutes
Here it is
If you want you can make egg appam, now I'm going to make egg appam
Apply oil on the pan
Take an egg
Add salt lightly
Add pepper powder
Cover and cook for 1 minute, after 1 minute open the lid and clean it without any water in it
Now its been for 2 minutes
The egg should cook more
Cover and cook
Now its been cooking for 5 minutes
If you want the egg cooked, even more, you can cook for another 1 minute but I need it in half-cooked "boiled"
Here it is
