#TricolourRecipe Instant Appam

Step 1

Beat yoghurt with 1/3 cup water for 2-3 minutes. See to it that there are no lumps remaining.

Step 2

Add rava to this mixture, mix it slowly and make a batter by adding more water if required. The batter should of medium consistency – neither too thin nor too thick. Keep it aside for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Divide the batter into three equal portions in three separate containers.

Step 5

In the first container, add carrot puree. Mix well.

Step 6

In the second container, add a little more yogurt. Mix well.

Step 7

In the third container, add spinach paste. Mix well.

Step 8

All the three batters should be of the same consistency.

Step 9

Lightly oil the appam pan with cooking oil or olive oil. Add mustard seeds to the oil.

Step 10

Pour the batter carefully into the pan; sprinkle some oil over it and let it cook for 5 minutes on low to medium heat.

Step 11

Flip them over and let the other side cook.

Step 12

Remove them when they are cooked and they are ready to be served.

Step 13

Enjoy them with chutney or hot sambar!
