Instructions
- Wash the rice and soak it for 3 to 4 hours.
- Allow it to drain.
- Grind the soaked rice in a blender with just enough water so that the ground material will be thick. In the early stages of grinding, take out about two table spoon of the partially ground rice and keep it apart for cooking and later mixing.(This will be called KURUKKU)
- Grind the coconut to a milky emulsion.
- Prepare the Kurukku by cooking the partially ground rice saved earlier like a thick porridge.
- Mix together the ground rice, the Kurukku, the yeast mixture and the ground coconut.
- Allow the mixture to ferment for about 6 hours.
- Now put the mixture in a warm oven for 2 hours just before you make the Appams.
- :-AFTER IT RISES, DO NOT STIR.
- Use a cast iron pan to make the appams and use the same technique that one uses for pancakes.
