    appam with coconut water

    Method of preparing batter for appam is same in the other appam.
    soda bycarb 1/4 tsp,sugar,coconut water 1 cup mix well and cover tightly keep it in warm place for 24 hours.add with the batter.Keep it for over night.
    Morning you can make appam or vellayappam.

    When the coconuts were breaked to make coppra to extract oil there was large quantities of coconut water.So raw rice was soaked in the coconut water and grind in coconut water.Add cooked rice, or rawa keep with coconut grated paste with the batter.Can be make appam next morning.
