I tried so many recipes but everything wasted my time.your recipe is 100000000% good 👍.Nowadays I don’t waste my time to search appam recipes. Thank you 🙏
Love you for your prompt replies always. Can balance batter for appam be kept in the fridge? If so, how long and how to use it again? Thank you so much.,
Hi Asha, I have always done just enough but think you can keep the left over batter for another day. I would recommend not adding the coconut milk to the batter you want to keep in the fridge. Leave the batter outside until it fully cools down then add the coconut milk and start making the appam. Hope this works. Thanks dear and take care.
The recipe with English Subtitles is so important. It encourages everyone to experiment with different Foods. Thanks so much, I hope others will follow.

Hi SreePunitha, My mum used to make without the baking powder too, but unfortunately it's very cold in here and the appam batter needs a bit of help to rise hence I add the baking powder. Thank you so much for your lovely comments.
Your recipe reminds me of my mother,this is the same method she used to do,but I modified abit and I use rice flour,the others are the same,thank u sis.
Dear Macray, you try warming up oil in your 'appam pan' (use it to fry things in a different pan with the same oil) and rub onion and fry eggs few times. Good Luck!
Hi Genie mum, thanks for the recipe, I am in the middle of making this recipe. I have ground the rice and mixed in the paste, baking powder and salt. It has been sitting with cling in a warm place for the past 6 hours but I am not seeing any bubbles at all. Should I put more baking powder?
I have a fabulous non stick pan, coz when APAM is cooked, all I do is give it a little 'loosening' and the APAM slides out!!! I have trier ducking the heat, I will try with your tips. Thank you. It is unfortunate that I was not interested when my mom (from Sri Lanka too) was around!!
Hi dear thank you very much for this Paal Appam recipe..I did it and its turnout so nice and the around was crispy and the middle was so soft and delicious. My whole family loved it dear...my grandkids too enjoyed it ...Thanks from all of us 🙏💜👌🏽😍

HI Roslin, if you are using the non stick chatti keep the lid closed for about 5 mins or so; as keep opening the lid often to check if the appam has cooked enough, the air goes in between the appam and the chatti and the out come will not be crispy. Good luck and thank you.
Hi mdm! I know u are a Sri Lankan by the way u talk n yr slang i m also one but Malaysian Sri Lankan. Seeing yr recipe looks so simple. I have tried but never turned out.now looking at yr recipe so simple.let me try yr respi .please one queston . If I were to use coconut water what would be the measurment be like I'm ke? Do I still make the kanji.n add coconut water ? Pls reply.tq very much.please send more recipes for us.Bye.
Hi Kanaga, Instead of adding water to grind the rice you can add coconut water. No measurement needed. Add enough water or coconut water to get the correct appam batter consistency. You can still make the kanji. It will make the fermenting process quick. Good luck and thanks so much for your comments.
Hi! Do you add the boiled runny batter of two teaspoons to the Appa mixture hot or once it's cooled? I'm sorry but I don't understand Tamil.. I happen to find this video accidentally and I think it's quite an easy way to make appa than the Sri Lankan style. 😊
Dear Chathuri, You need to add the boiled runny porridge when it's warm, not hot or cold. This is very easy way of making appam. Make sure the batter ferments and also the appa batter shouldn't be thick. Good luck and thanks so much for your lovely comments.
My local indian eatery is closed because we are on lockdown. I miss their appam so much. 😢 Thank you for the recipe. I'll try this out tomorrow. Stay safe ♥
@@geniemum652 I've tried it! Mine didn't rise as beautifully as yours. After overnight, still no bubbles and the water separated, so I mixed it and left it for an entire day, still not risen, not sure why but it smells right. So I drained the floating water and just went ahead and cooked some just now. It's soooo goooood! 👏🏾 Thank you so much! 💖
Hi Genie Mum, we are from the UK and we tried your recipe. It was really good, but the sides were quite hard. What can we do about this? We used a non-stick appam thachi, I’m not sure if that’s why. Thank you so much for your lovely recipes! Your date cake was especially popular among our family! 😁
Dear Ramya, Was the batter looking fermented? Also the batter should be on the runny side. If it is a bit thick the sides will become hard. Thanks so much for your beautiful feedback, really appreciate it. You are most welcome dear! Thank you.
Hi Genie Mum, can I use yeast to ferment instead of kappi as it's winter now? Or should I use both to assist in fermentation? Also, can I use Idly rice instead of long grain rice? Thanks.
Hi JR, Winter is a real tricky time for these kind of food making. Adding yeast will definitely makes the fermentation faster so go for it. I am sure idly rice will do the same job without any issues. Let me know how you go if you can. Good luck and thanks so much for your comments.
Hi Dear, the purpose of adding the baking powder is to help the fermentation and rising. So you don't need to add it if you are using yeast and cooked rice. I would recommend a day old rice though since it's winter at your end. Hope this helps, thanks again JR.
Hi, I used 1 cup normal rice, 1 cup idly rice, some cooked rice and yeast. It's fermenting now. Hopefully it will ferment well. Keeping my fingers crossed!😊
Hi Fathima, இப்படித்தான் நான் செய்வது வழக்கம். இந்த அப்பம் மாவில் நீங்கள் மாவை கரைத்த வகையிலும் ஊற்றும் அளவையும் பொறுத்து 15-20 numbers அப்பம் செய்யலாம். நன்றி.
I tried your thosai, it was good, thx. Today I just blended the flour and mixed and then realised that I need to stay for 8 hours which means 9 PM. Can I make it tomorrow or earlier than 8 hrs?
I remember that this is how my late mother used to make apom. Especially the part where part of the batter is cooked. Thank you for sharing. Can’t wait to try it
Hi Channel Bee, எனக்கு அப்பம் சரியாக வரும், ஒன்றை செய்யப்போகும் பொழுதே சந்தேகத்தோடு போனால் சரியாக வருமோ என்று தெரியாது. துணிவிருந்தால் இறங்கி அப்பம் சுடுங்கள், after all இது ஒரு அப்பம் எப்படி பிழைக்கும்? நன்றி
Thanks Genie Mum. Lovely looking appam. The shiny soft centre is what I've been looking for, just like my Mum's appams. Do you know why part of the batter is cooked separately? Is it science or just a custom. Also, can I use dry yeast to help the fermentation? In my young days I lived in Kandy, but now I live in the UK and there may not be natural yeasts in the air to start the fermentation. Unfortunately, I don't speak tamil, so the subtitles are invaluable. Thanks a million. Looking forward to giving this a go.
Hi Ross, When the batter is added to the hot little pan and rotated around it creates a thin part of the appam on top and the rest of the batter ends up in the bottom. Since the top part is so thin it becomes crispy and the bottom becomes soft. You definitely can try with yeast. Thank you.
Hi Sharmila, Absolutely. We always prefer the ones that we used to eat and grew up with. This is the Jaffna traditional way of making appam. Thank you for your comments.
Dear Presilla, You can try with any white raw rice, it should work fine. I have started with basmati rice but works well with all white raw rice, good luck and enjoy. Thank you.
Tried it 3 times but it didn't quite work. A few questions 1. Do you throw away the water that is use to soak the rice or you add it to the 1 cup of water ie 1 cup of water to grind rice or 1 cup plus water to soak to rice 2. Can you confirm that it is 1/4 tsp and not tablespoon of baking powder 3. When cooking the batter, the subtitles just say add 1/4 to dilute the cook batter. Would it be 1/4 cup water 4. When you ferment for 5 to 6 hours, what kind of temperature are we talking about ? thank you.
Hi Michelle, Sorry to hear that the appam didn't turn up well for you. The 1/4 cup there was meant to be water. No I didn't add the water used to wash the rice. It's all fresh water being used for this recipe. The fermentation to be done in room temperature.20°C bit more or less. Hope it works out well next time. Thank you and good luck Michelle.
Hi Suman, you can lightly apply oil to a non stick pan and it will last for about 3-4 appam do not apply a lot as this will make the appam batter not sticking to the pan. Keep the heat in low to medium and adjust while cooking if need to. Hope this helps. Thank you.
Thanks so much for letting me know Nicola, I have already made fish patties, please see with the below link, thank you! th-cam.com/video/5Sl5cikFFnE/w-d-xo.html
May I ask: 1. For the amount of ingredients stated in this clip, how many pieces of the final product would there be? (assuming the wok is about the same size as the one show.) 2. Can rice flour be used instead to save 4 hours of soaking the rice.
Hi ePALPAL, there will be around 10-12 pieces at the end. If you can get raw rice flour yes you can skip making the flour yourself and save time. thank you for your comments.
Hi Tharan, நீங்கள் non-stick panஇல் செய்திருப்பீர்கள் என்று நினைக்கிறேன். அப்படி செய்யும் பொழுது, இடை இடையே திறந்து பார்த்தால் அப்பம் சட்டியில் முட்டாமல் போய் விடும் சூடு படாது அதனால் மொறுகி வராது. முழு நேரமும் மூடியை திறக்காமல் செய்தால் சரியாக வரும், Better luck next time, thank you.
Hi Vasuki, you can definitely try with the red raw rice too, but the appam colour will be slightly brown that will be the only difference I believe. Wish you all the best. Thank you.
Hello Genie mum ..... subscribed your channel just 2 days ago . Been looking for a perfect Srilankan appam .... just loved the way you explain and the appaam’s looks so tempting .... nice really nice . Made the appam today ... it was little crispy outside and the centre was soft ( but it had a sticky ... tender coconut texture) ... but your’s looks really puffed up and spongy . Really want to get the same texture as your’s . 1. Long grain rice .... do u mean basumathi rice or any raw rice can be used??? ... I used mavvu raw rice ( name of the rice) . Can I use ponni or basumathi ? Kindly guide . I make in a non stick pan ... it comes of the side soon , and I have to keep it really watery for it to stick to the sides ... waiting for your reply ... Thankyou😊.... Tamilnadu , India
Dear Madhavi, Thanks for subscribing and trying my recipe too. I used Basmati rice for the appam but sometimes I would just use any white long grain rice. Also when you make it in the nonstick pan the texture will be slightly different. I am writing the below thinking they might have been the cause of your sticky bottom. The pan shouldn't be overly heated if it is, the batter at the bottom gets cooked quickly and the top part wouldn't be cooked equally and end up being sticky. If the appam doesn't stick to the pan add the batter to the pan keep it in the stove for 5 seconds and then rotate it; when the sides are heated the batter would stick to the sides easily as well. The secret of getting crispy appam with the nonstick pan would be to keep the appam covered with the lid for at least 5 mins and then open it. If you open the lid in the middle of the cooking the appam will come off the sides and the end product would not have the crispy sides. Hope these help.

Sister nenga sonnamari seithaal appam correct aa varuma? Nambi seiyalama?
Hi Channel Bee, எனக்கு அப்பம் சரியாக வரும், ஒன்றை செய்யப்போகும் பொழுதே சந்தேகத்தோடு போனால் சரியாக வருமோ என்று தெரியாது. துணிவிருந்தால் இறங்கி அப்பம் சுடுங்கள், after all இது ஒரு அப்பம் எப்படி பிழைக்கும்? நன்றி

Hi Sasi,கொஞ்ச நாள் முட்டையை அதில் பொரித்து பழக்க படுத்தினால் அப்பம் ஒட்டாமல் வரும். Thank you.
Thanks Genie Mum. Lovely looking appam. The shiny soft centre is what I've been looking for, just like my Mum's appams. Do you know why part of the batter is cooked separately? Is it science or just a custom. Also, can I use dry yeast to help the fermentation? In my young days I lived in Kandy, but now I live in the UK and there may not be natural yeasts in the air to start the fermentation. Unfortunately, I don't speak tamil, so the subtitles are invaluable. Thanks a million. Looking forward to giving this a go.
Hi Ross, When the batter is added to the hot little pan and rotated around it creates a thin part of the appam on top and the rest of the batter ends up in the bottom. Since the top part is so thin it becomes crispy and the bottom becomes soft. You definitely can try with yeast. Thank you.
I like the traditional plain appam dip in coconut milk ... thats how we eat in kerala
Hi Sharmila, Absolutely. We always prefer the ones that we used to eat and grew up with. This is the Jaffna traditional way of making appam. Thank you for your comments.
Hai mam long rice means oridinary rice or boiled rice. Thanks for nice recepie
Basmati kind of rice not parboiled. Thank you, Vishal.
So appam can be made in any kind of kadai?
I have Indalium like ypurs and a iron kadai
Hi Narmatha, Any kadai should be seasoned well if you are going to make appam. Thank you.
Bring back memories my Amma making these. Great job. 👍Thank you from UK.
Thank you G WIj :)
I’ll try it out it looks very simple and easy.
It is simple and it won't fail too, good luck and thank you!
Long grain rice means is it basmati rice , or will it come in idly rice ? I don't have raw rice dear, first time pls say me which rice to use
Dear Presilla, You can try with any white raw rice, it should work fine. I have started with basmati rice but works well with all white raw rice, good luck and enjoy. Thank you.
Without yeast, it didn't ferment well
Tried it 3 times but it didn't quite work. A few questions 1. Do you throw away the water that is use to soak the rice or you add it to the 1 cup of water ie 1 cup of water to grind rice or 1 cup plus water to soak to rice 2. Can you confirm that it is 1/4 tsp and not tablespoon of baking powder 3. When cooking the batter, the subtitles just say add 1/4 to dilute the cook batter. Would it be 1/4 cup water 4. When you ferment for 5 to 6 hours, what kind of temperature are we talking about ? thank you.
Hi Michelle, Sorry to hear that the appam didn't turn up well for you. The 1/4 cup there was meant to be water. No I didn't add the water used to wash the rice. It's all fresh water being used for this recipe. The fermentation to be done in room temperature.20°C bit more or less. Hope it works out well next time. Thank you and good luck Michelle.
@@geniemum652 thank you will definitely try again

மிகவும் நன்றி Dhivya!
Is the appapam pan non stick, do u hv to apply oil in the pan.
Also flame of gas to be kept high or medium or low. Please reply
Hi Suman, you can lightly apply oil to a non stick pan and it will last for about 3-4 appam do not apply a lot as this will make the appam batter not sticking to the pan. Keep the heat in low to medium and adjust while cooking if need to. Hope this helps. Thank you.

May I ask: 1. For the amount of ingredients stated in this clip, how many pieces of the final product would there be? (assuming the wok is about the same size as the one show.)
2. Can rice flour be used instead to save 4 hours of soaking the rice.
Hi ePALPAL, there will be around 10-12 pieces at the end. If you can get raw rice flour yes you can skip making the flour yourself and save time. thank you for your comments.
@@geniemum652 If I use rice flour, do I use 2 cups rice flour n follow the rest of the ingredients the same? Will the baking powder be 1/4 tsp still?

Sis na neega sonamari appam senja ahna side la brown na varla full ah white ah iruku ena panum
Hi Tharan, நீங்கள் non-stick panஇல் செய்திருப்பீர்கள் என்று நினைக்கிறேன். அப்படி செய்யும் பொழுது, இடை இடையே திறந்து பார்த்தால் அப்பம் சட்டியில் முட்டாமல் போய் விடும் சூடு படாது அதனால் மொறுகி வராது. முழு நேரமும் மூடியை திறக்காமல் செய்தால் சரியாக வரும், Better luck next time, thank you.
Look awesome my fav appam this look nice..may i know that cloth wet or dry cloth
Do you mean the dubbing cloth Rasidah, I put some oil to it (preferably sesame oil) and dub every time I make a new appam, hope this helps. Thank you.
Can we try this recipe with red raw rice pls? If so, shld we add a portion of white raw rice to it ?
Hi Vasuki, you can definitely try with the red raw rice too, but the appam colour will be slightly brown that will be the only difference I believe. Wish you all the best. Thank you.
@@geniemum652 thanks alot dear for your response.
Thanks maam . This is the best appam recipe I've seen ever in the you tube . very kind of you!

Hi Genie Mum,
I followed every step but my dough mix didn’t ferment. What could have prevented fermentation?
Hi Amber, How are you? Is the weather warm/hot where you are at the time the batter was left to get fermented?
I’m good, Thanks.
Hope you’re well too.
Thanks for your reply.
It’s Spring here. So weather is cooler.
How many days can we keep this batter for
Hi Kamalawanan, You should be able to keep it for 2 days. Thank you.

Hi what kind of long grain rice? Can you tell name or band?
Hi Amrutha, I used basmati rice, any white raw rice should do the job. Thank you.
Thanking you
Hello Genie mum ..... subscribed your channel just 2 days ago . Been looking for a perfect Srilankan appam .... just loved the way you explain and the appaam’s looks so tempting .... nice really nice . Made the appam today ... it was little crispy outside and the centre was soft ( but it had a sticky ... tender coconut texture) ... but your’s looks really puffed up and spongy . Really want to get the same texture as your’s . 1. Long grain rice .... do u mean basumathi rice or any raw rice can be used??? ... I used mavvu raw rice ( name of the rice) . Can I use ponni or basumathi ? Kindly guide . I make in a non stick pan ... it comes of the side soon , and I have to keep it really watery for it to stick to the sides ... waiting for your reply ... Thankyou😊.... Tamilnadu , India
Dear Madhavi, Thanks for subscribing and trying my recipe too. I used Basmati rice for the appam but sometimes I would just use any white long grain rice. Also when you make it in the nonstick pan the texture will be slightly different. I am writing the below thinking they might have been the cause of your sticky bottom. The pan shouldn't be overly heated if it is, the batter at the bottom gets cooked quickly and the top part wouldn't be cooked equally and end up being sticky. If the appam doesn't stick to the pan add the batter to the pan keep it in the stove for 5 seconds and then rotate it; when the sides are heated the batter would stick to the sides easily as well. The secret of getting crispy appam with the nonstick pan would be to keep the appam covered with the lid for at least 5 mins and then open it. If you open the lid in the middle of the cooking the appam will come off the sides and the end product would not have the crispy sides. Hope these help.
So simple easy explained..m confident I can too prepare Appam..by the way new subscriber 👍👍
Thanks for your comment and support Vasantha!
Hi mam, I don't have baking powder at home, got any substitute ingredient for this?
