Final preparation:
Tip- Do not refrigerate aappam batter during fermenting. Aappachatti is used to make Aappam (or one can use normal dosa pan / dosa tawa).
1, Heat non stick appachatty.
2, Grease the appachatty with little oil.
3, Pour one ladleful of aappam batter to the aappachatty.
4, Lift the pan (from the stove) and slightly twist around to spread the batter in the pan to make circular shape .
5, Close aappachatty with a lid and cook on low heat till the edges are golden brown. When the Aappam is ready the edges resemble crisp lace and centre soft. Traditionally this is eaten with korma / spicy curries / coconut milk/ sugar .
