Do you know anyone who doesn't love South Indian food? Well, we're not. The unique taste and richness of this cuisine has made everyone across the country fall in love with it. Apart from the usual dishes of idli, dosa and upma, appe is one of our favorite dishes. Appe, also known as paddu or paniram, is a traditional South Indian dish that is usually served for breakfast or as a snack. These small, round and fluffy dumplings are healthy, tasty and easy to make. This dish is perfect for a quick and tasty meal.

What are apps made of?

Traditionally, appe is made from fermented rice and urad dal flour and cooked in a special appe pan. Ideally, the rice and dal mixture should be soaked in water and left to ferment overnight to be cooked the next day. The best thing about appe is that it is a healthy and nutritious dish. The fermented batter used to make the appi is rich in probiotics, which help promote gut health. Also, if you add some vegetables, you get more nutrition for good health. And not to forget that Appay is steamed to cook with very less oil.

Another great feature of appe is that it is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. You can add different ingredients to the batter like grated coconut, chopped green chillies or even grated paneer to create a unique and delicious dish. Appe can also be served as a sweet dish by adding jaggery, cardamom and coconut and serving it with sweet chutney.

How to Create a Classic App:

If you are making your own appe batter, grind the soaked rice and urad dal mixture to a paste and add little water to make a thick batter. Better yet, you can use ready-made dosa batter. Add in vegetables like chopped onions and carrots and season with ginger, cumin and salt. You can also add fresh coriander. Then grease the appe pan mold with little oil and steam for 10-15 minutes until the appe is cooked well.
