Karthigai Appam/Rava Paniyaram/Appam

This is a simple and easy to make appam or paniyaram which is made for Karthigai Deepam in my in laws place.My mom makes Karthigai appam with soaked raw rice which I  share later whereas this is an instant method of making appam which doesn't need any grinding except the soaking time.Originally it is deep fried in ghee but to make it more healthier instead of deep frying I make it in paniyaram pan and used wheat flour instead of all purpose flour.In some places it is made like a thick pancake in a griddle with ghee.Now on to the recipe....

Ingredients

IngredientQuantity
Wheat flour1cup
Rice flour1/4cup
Semolina/rava/sooji1cup
Coconut(grated)3tbs(optional)
Cardamom/ellakai Powder1tsp
Jaggery/vellam1cup
Milk11/2cups
Salta pinch
Baking soda1/8tsp
Gheeas needed


Method

  • Mix in wheat flour,semolina,rice flour and add the milk.Let it soak for an hour.
  • Add 1/4 cup of water to the jaggery, make the syrup and pass it through the strainer to remove the impurities. Now mix in the sugar syrup to the soaked mixture.Add in the cardamom powder,salt,baking powder, grated coconut and mix it well.
  • Heat a paniyaram pan and add 1tsp of ghee to each hole,once the ghee becomes hot fill each hole with the batter.
  • Cook it in a medium flame till golden color and flip it to the other side.Cook it for a minute and remove it from the pan.
  • Appam is ready.
Enjoy....................................................

  • The batter should be in pouring consistency,if it is not add little more milk and adjust the consistency.if the the batter is too thick the appam will be hard.
  • Adding grated coconut or coconut bits is purely optional  original recipe doesn't have it but can also be added for extra taste and flavor.
  • Instead of jaggery sugar can be used and the soaking time is important to get  fluffy and soft appams. 
  • Be generous with the ghee to get a tasty appams.

Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Today is the final day for the Cooking Carnival in mega Blogging Marathon edition ans I like to end the series with a sweet note. Coming to the recipe its a sweet adai which is often made in our households for quick neivedhyam for offering to god..So many variations can be made using wheat flour,maida,ragi flour and sometimes with semolina. Today's version I used both wheat and all purpose flour along with rice flour.Since sweetener is used to make the batter this adai needs to be cooked in a medium flame,otherwise the color will turn dark.Here I used jaggery,even palm sugar and brown sugar can also be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Sweet Adai/Inippu Adai                                                                         Basic Information    Pre
