Lacy fermented rice pancakes with crisp edges and a soft, spongy centre.
The charm of Appam is lacy fermented rice pancakes with crisp edges and a soft, spongy centre. Once the batter, grain or dough is prepared correctly, the actual cooking is simple and dependable.
Follow along step-by-step.
Soak raw rice for 4 hours and grind with cooked rice and coconut milk until smooth.
Stir in yeast, sugar and enough water for a thin batter; ferment until lightly bubbly.
Heat an appam pan, pour in a ladle of batter and swirl the pan to coat the sides.
Cover and cook until the centre is set and the lacy edges are crisp.
Prep time includes fermentation. The pan does the shaping; no flipping is needed. Nutrition values are approximate per serving.
