Aappam recipe is the first in nalas appa kadai buffet
menu. I searched the hotel in Bangalore but no branches then I tasted the
recipe at nalas appa kadai velachery. Now
Chennai people are enjoying the free home delivery. Appam is the most liked
breakfast recipe in the state of Tamilnadu and rest of south India as well. The
Appam is enjoyed with different types of curries, vegetable korma, coconut milk
with sugar or spicy coconut milk.

Nalas appa
kadai recipe Tamil Style Aappam preparation
Thoroughly
wash urad dal and rice and soak the both together in water for 5 to 6 hours.
After 6 hours remove the water and make a smooth batter of rice and urad dal in
the mixer. Add ½ cup water and 4 tsp of cooked rice in the mixer while grinding
the batter. You need to make a fine thick batter so avoid adding more water
while grinding. When the batter is ready add 2 cups of coconut milk in it and
mix it well.
Pour the
batter in the big bowl and add salt in it. After mixing salt properly cover the
bowl and allow it to set for overnight or at least 7 to 8 hours. The batter
will get fermented during this time. When the fermentation procedure is
complete, add sugar, remaining coconut milk and Eno fruit salt in the batter.
You need to stir the batter consistently and mix all the ingredients properly.
It is necessary to prepare appam immediately after adding Eno fruit salt in it.
Avoid keeping the batter in the refrigerator during fermentation process.
How to make
Tamil style Aappam
To make
soft and tasty appam, a special pan called Aappachatti is used. If you are not
having it then you can make appams in your non stick pan or on dosa tawa
instead.
Heat
appachatty and spread some oil on it. Now pour a medium bowl size appam batter
in aappachatti. Lift the pan in your
hands and move it slowly in a circular motion to spread the batter in the pan
and make a round shape. Now close the vessel or aappachatti with lid and reduce
the gas flame. Allow it to cook for till the circular edges of appam turns in
to golden brown color. Remove it from appachatti and serve hot with chutney,
curry or coconut milk. The perfectly tasty appam is soft in the centre and
crispy at its edges!
