Instructions
- Soak rice and urad dal separately in water for 4-6 hours.
- Drain and blend the soaked rice and urad dal together with 1 cup of water to a smooth batter.
- Transfer the batter to a bowl, cover, and let it ferment overnight or for about 8-10 hours.
- Once fermented, add salt to the batter and mix well.
- Heat a non-stick appam pan or skillet and grease it lightly with oil.
- Pour a ladleful of batter into the center of the pan and swirl it to spread the batter in a circular motion.
- Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the center is cooked.
- Remove the appam and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Tips
- Serve with coconut chutney or sambar for a complete meal.
- Ensure the batter is well fermented for the best texture.
