Aappam

 

 

 

This is a Kerala delicacy , which is also made in many parts of Tamilnadu . The soft wafer thin Aappams are tasty with coconut milk . You need a special Aappa Kadai to make Aappams. These kadais are shallow kadais , which are greased and the Aappam batter is swirled in the Kadai to get a thick centre and a thin outer edges.

If you are bored of the usual Idli . Sambaar . Parathas , Upma or Muesli for breakfast ,try  Aappam at home.
