Appam with egg roast.

Description:

             Appams are made from fermented rice flour. These Appams are cooked in Appachatti.  Appams goes good with Chicken curry, Vegetable stew, Egg roast etc.  Here goes my recipe for Appam and Egg roast.

Preparation of Appams:

Ingredients:

1. Raw rice - 2 cups
2. Cooked rice - 1/2 cup
3. Coconut  milk - 1/2 cup
4. Sugar - 1 tablespoon
5. Yeast 
6. Salt to taste

Procedure:

            Soak the raw rice for almost 7-8 hours or overnight. After that grind the soaked rice smooth. Don't add more water into the rice as the final batter should`t be watery. Next add the cooked rice, coconut milk, sugar  into the rice batter and grind. Pour the batter into a bowl and keep aside. Take lukewarm water and add little yeast into it. Leave this for 10-15 minutes. After 15 minutes the yeast will  rise. Pour this yeast into the batter and leave it to ferment for 6-7 hrs, if its fermented properly then we can see the batter will have little foam/bubble formed on top. 

            Before cooking add salt to the batter and stir well. Heat the appamchatti and pour a ladle full of batter into the chatti and give a twirl. Close the lid and cook for 2-3 minutes on medium/low flame. Appam is ready.

Preparation for Egg Roast:

2. Onions
3. Dry red chilli
4. Ginger
5. Garlic
6. Tomato
7. Chilli powder
8. Coriander powder
9. Turmeric powder
10. Cumin powder
11. Curry leaves
11. Salt to taste

Procedure:

           Boil the egg properly and keep aside. Slice the onions length wise  and keep aside. Chop the tomatoes, ginger and Garlic. Pour oil in a pan and splutter mustard. Next add curry leaves and dry red chilli. Add chopped ginger and garlic too.  Now add the sliced onions and salt. Stir well and saute the onions till it starts to change colour. Put the tomatoes into the gravy and give a stir. Lightly roast the chilli powder, Cumin powder, corinder powder , turmeric powder and add it into the gravy. Add some water and cook it with the lids closed till the gravy becomes thick. After 6-8 minutes add the egg . In between make slits on the egg so that the masala will go inside the egg. Cook the egg roast for few minutes and turn off the stove. The egg roast should be dry, then it will taste more good with appam. We can garnish egg roast with coriander leaves .  Hope all of you likes it. Thanks!!!
