Instructions
- Wash rice and dal together and soak them overnight or minimum 4 hours in fresh water. Grind them into a fine batter the next morning or after 4 hours.
- Now the most important step is to fermentate the batter. If you have sufficient time then let the batter rest and fermentate for minimum 2 hours. But if you are in a rush then you may add baking soda in the batter and mix well. Adjust salt.
- Heat the appe pan and add few drops of oil in each section.
- As soon as the oil is piping hot pour the batter into each section. Make sure that you do not fill the batter till top, because it will rise and pop up.
- Close the lid for 30-40 sec and then with the help of the wooden spatula turn the appe upside down. Again cook for few seconds or maximum a minute. Keep the flames from low to medium.
- Take off the Appes in a plate and similarly repeat the same again to make more.
Note :
- If you have dosa batter at home, you can use them to make Appe.
- You can add spices or veggies as per your choice in the batter to make veg ape.
To make Peanut Dip :
- Heat oil in a pan and add cumin to splutter.
- Now add whole red chilli and peanuts to saute.
- Cool the mix and grind them with little water making a fine dip.
- Add dessicated coconut and stir well.
- Adjust salt and water as per the required consistency.
