🇮🇳 Indian

Kerala appam with lacy edges, the bowl-shaped pancake built for coconut stew. Crisp where it should be, pillowy where it counts. Classic sides: molaga podi with sesame oil, and a bowl of sambar.

Ingredients

Saltto taste
Ginger1-inch piece
Green Chili2
Rice3/4 cup
Mustard Seeds1/2 tsp
Curry Leaves2 sprigs
Asafoetidaa pinch
Coconut Milk1 cup
Coconut Oil2 tbsp

Instructions

1
Soak the rice and urad dal (with fenugreek seeds) separately for 4-6 hours, then grind each to a smooth batter with cold water, combine and ferment overnight.
2
Loosen the batter to pouring consistency — think thick pancake batter, not glue.
3
Grease the pan lightly with a cut onion dipped in oil — the old non-stick trick.
4
Pour a ladle of batter and spread it thin (or fill the dimples three-quarters for paniyaram); drizzle oil around the edges.
5
Wait for the edges to lift on their own, then flip for a minute more; serve hot with chutney and sambar.

Chef's tip

The first dosa is the pan's sacrifice — eat it and carry on.
