Ragi Appam

Flavorful appam with finger millet with minimal ingredients is super easy to make and tastes delicious. It can served as South indian breakfast or indian tiffin for dinner 

WHY LEFTOVER RICE FOR SPONGY APPAM?

Cooked rice helps for soft and spongy appam. I highly recommend leftover cold rice at room temperature or from the refrigerator. avoid hot rice

WHAT KIND OF RICE WORKS FOR KERALA APPAM?

Add cooked sona masoori rice or raw rice for the best Kerala-style Appam. 

Can I skip coconut

Coconut makes the appam flavorful and has a nice texture I would highly recommend it. 

Tips for mixie grinding

Use room temperature water. Add all the ingredients together and grind a smooth batter

Amount of water

It might slightly vary based on the Ragi flour. Make sure it is water. the given measurement always works for me

Can I make in dosa griddle

it will turn out soft and spongy. I would recommend covering and cooking for best results. Avoid flipping

CONSISTENCY OF APPAM BATTER?

Appam batter is watery (liquid consistency ) compared to dosai/ adai batter. to check if the batter is at the right consistency,  take a little batter at the back side of the ladle, if you wipe the  batter, you should be able to wipe it clean

BEST SIDE DISH FOR Kerala appam

Appam tastes yummy with  Vegetable stew and Sodhi is a tasty side. Coconut chutney, tomato onion thokku, kadala curry, and kurma are my other favorite side dishes.

CAN I REDUCE SUGAR?

I would recommend the mentioned quantity of sugar as it helps for the perfect appam texture and also balances the baking soda flavor.
