Pachai Arisi \ Raw Rice - 1 cup Pulunggal Arisi or Idly Arisi - 1 cup Ulundu \ Urad Dal - 1/3 cup Vendayam \ Fenugreek - 1 tbsp Salt to Taste.

Method :

Steps To Make The Appam Batter : Wash and soak the urad dal and fenugreek with enough water for 3hours. Similarly soak the both rice together separately. (Image 1)

Drain the water and discard it (good for watering plant). To make the batter, first grind the soaked urad dal and fenugreek into paste with about 1/2 cup of water for 10 to 15mins. (Image 2 and 3) Add in the soaked rice and again grind into fine paste with about 1 cup (+ or -) of water for 20 to 25 minutes. (Image 4 and 5)

To ferment, set the batter at the warm place for 8 to 10hours. (use large bowl to ferment) (Image 6) After 8 hours of ferment, the batter will rise well and you can see the tiny bubbles. (Image 7) If the batter is too thick, add required water, mix well and ready to use. Appam batter is little watery than the Idly \ Dosa Batter.

Steps To Make The Appam : Heat and grease the appam kadai with sliced onion. (Image 8) Once heated, remove the appam kadai from the flame (to avoid shrink), then pour a ladle full of batter and slowly rotate the appam kadai in a circular motion so the center remains thick and sides becomes thin. (Image 9 and 10) Then cook and cover the lid over medium flame till the edges becomes crispy and golden brown colour. (Image 11 and 12) Take out the appam from the kadai (Image 13) and do the same for the remaining batter.
