This vellai appam doesn’t have any spice. So compensate the spice factor, this appam is served with hot and spicy Kara chutney or milagai thogayal.
Tips for making Chettinad Vellai Appam:
- We have made this appam with 1 cup raw rice. We can use 3/4 cup raw rice and 1/4 cup parboiled rice.
- No need to ferment the batter. We have to use the batter immediately.
- After adding baking soda, do not keep the batter aside as it dilutes the batter very much.
- Use a small ladle to pour the batter in oil. We have to cook one appam at a time.
- Splash oil on the appam so it gets puffed up.
- Instead of adding water to grind the soaked rice+dal we can use milk or coconut milk too.
