Appam Bread
Appam is a classic Indian bread made from a simple fermented batter of soaked rice and coconut. The combination of yeast, sugar, and coconut creates a slightly sweet, airy texture with crisp edges and a soft center. It cooks quickly in a pan and pairs perfectly with rich curries or stews for a comforting meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cups coconut soaked for 6 hours
- 1 cup rice soaked for 6 hours
- ½ tsp. dry yeast
- 3 Tbsp. sugar
- Salt to the taste
Instructions
- 1Drain the soaked rice and coconut, then transfer them to a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
- 2Season the mixture with salt and sugar, blending continuously for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth.
- 3Sprinkle in the dry yeast and continue blending for another 3 to 4 minutes to fully incorporate the ingredients.
- 4Pour the batter into a large bowl, cover it tightly, and let it rest in a warm spot for 1 hour to ferment.
- 5Warm a skillet over medium heat. Pour a portion of the batter into the center, spread it out evenly, cover the pan, and cook for 3 minutes before moving the bread to a plate.
- 6Continue this process with the remaining batter. Serve the flatbreads warm.
