    Idiyappam is one common breakfast in my house. It is a traditional recipe from Kerala and south Tamil Nadu made of rice flour.

    Idiyappam

    Idiyappam is one common breakfast in my house. It is a traditional recipe from Kerala , TamilNadu and Srilanka. It is also called as string hoppers, sevai or nool puttu.

    The main challenge in preparing the string hoppers is dough preparation. If we get that right string hoppers will be ready in no time. Like idly, idiyappam is also steam-cooked hence it's very healthy.

    Today I am showing the very basic recipe of string hoppers. We can do a lot of variations to the basic recipe like kothu idiyappam, coconut idiyappam.

    Idiyappam tastes good with coconut milk.

         2)     This process should be carried out quickly before the water cools down as the water used for mixing the flour should be boiling hot .After mixing the flour .put the flour into the idiyappam achu/presser.

      3)     Grease an idiyappam pan with oil and run through the idiyappam press in a circular motion in an idiyappam pan. Keep the idiyappam pan inside a steamer and steam it for 10 – 15 mins or until its fully cooked.
