can i get the original apam of srilankan.appam r appam tha round thosai shape.
Hi Anju
I am a Malayalee living in perth. I make very good Appam the recepie is : soak 300 grams of raw rice(not par boiled rice) for 3/4 hours. scrape 1/2 of a cocunut-medium size and grind in a wet grinder or a mixer. Should grind it very fine add one table spoon of sugar and salt to taste. keep it for fermentation. Add yeast(2 to 3 grams) one hour before you need to make the Appam. To make more rich you can add 1/2 cup of coconut milk instead waten while grinding the rice. Make sure you are not keeping the flour in the fridge after adding yeast. Try and send me your experience of making this recepie.
Good luck : Sunitha Sundrem

Paalappam recipe - does not need the 'kurukku' (gruel) that most other recipes need.
Thoroughly rinsed Raw rice - 2 cups - to be soaked in 1 cup of water
Coconut - 1/2 - To be grated and milk extracted. In case you are using tinned coconut milk (which is not too watery) please use 200 ml.
Yeast - 1/2 teaspoon
Sugar - 1 teaspoon
Cooked raw rice - 1 cup
Set aside 1/4 cup of coconut milk. Heat it (when you dip your index finger, the milk should be tepid). Add yeast and sugar and let it rise.
Grind the raw rice along with the water used for soaking, coconut milk and cooked raw rice. You should get a fairly smooth thick batter. Add the yeast and mix well. Let the mixture stand for 6 to 7 hours. When ready to make palappams, add sugar and salt to taste.
N.B. Go easy on the sugar if this is your first attempt at making palappams.
