How to Make Vellayappam

• Warm up 2 tbsp of water, add sugar and mix in the yeast.
• In a bowl, mix together the flour and coconut milk and make it into a paste. Make sure there are no lumps.
• Gradually, add water and make a thin batter (like the consistency of dosa batter).
• Add the dissolved yeast and salt and mix thoroughly.
• Allow the batter to ferment for 6-8 hours.
• When the batter has risen, it's ready to use.
• Heat a non-stick tawa.
• Pour in 1 ladle of batter, lift the tawa and rotate it slowly once so that the batter spreads evenly.
• Cover and let it cook in the steam for 1 minute.
• Remove the appam using a spatula when done.
• Serve hot with a spicy side dish (korma).
