    Rava inipu appam?

    If you are looking for an instant appam for karthigai deepam this Sweet sooji appam is perfect. soft and spongy inside and crispy outside appam is super easy to make and tastes delicious.

    WHEN IT IS PREPARED?

    Traditionally appam recipes are prepared during karthigai deepam.  Jaggery-based sweet is a popular after-school snack for kids. You can also prepare this for dinner parties, get together, etc.

    should I soak rava?

    yes, this step is very important for the pillow-soft Rava appam so pls don't skip it. I would recommend soaking in hot water. I used 210 degrees Fahrenheit of hot water.

    Jaggery water

    most of the time jaggery contains impurities so I prefer preparing jaggery water; filtering then using it for Sooji sweet appam. I have used a microwave but you can prepare jaggery water on the stovetop too. avoid string consistency 

    can i use sugar?

    yes you can use sugar. In that case skip melting the sugar. Add the sugar and prepare batter .

    CAN I REDUCE JAGGERY?

    You can adjust according to your taste I prefer using  1:1 rava to jaggery.

    should I beat the batter for 5 mins?

    yes since we have skipped baking soda it is a must to beat the batter for soft and fluffy appam . I used an electric mixer which made it easy. You can also use a whisk or ladle.

    can I skip grinding the batter?

    grinding the batter gives a smooth texture and taste to the appam also it adds an extra fluffiness to the batter. Avoid grinding for a long time. If the batter turns hot, appam might turn chewy/rubbery.

    CAN I SKIP RESTING THE BATTER?

    Resting sooji sweet appam batter is a must for soft and spongy. It gives the best texture and taste.

    SHOULD I USE BAKING SODA FOR THE SOFT sweet rava APPAM RECIPE?

    I didn't use baking soda still my Appam turned pillow-soft with crispy edges. If you follow the recipe with tips & tricks, baking soda is not required.

    CAN I deep fry instant APPAM?

    Yes, you can deep fry in oil or ghee. I prefer using panniyaram pan and use ghee.

    Can I rest the batter for additional time?

    you can rest the batter for up to 8 hours at room temperature. 2 days in the fridge.
