Steps to make Appam and White Saagu(White Kurma):
Take raw rice and par boiled rice, wash it.Soak it with enough water for 4 to 5 hours. Take urad dal,methi and saburdana wash it twice and soak it for 4 to 5 hours. Then remove water from Urad dal and grind it in wet grinder. After it is half grinded add rice and grind it. Add little water and grind it to a thick smooth paste.
After grinding transfer the batter to a big vessel.Add salt and allow it to ferment for 10 to 12 hours. I kept the batter overnight and next morning the batter fermented well and it rised up in the vessel.
Now I prepared coconut milk. The first thick coconut milk is kept for serving with Aapam.Add little sugar to it and mix it. Then 2nd thin coconut milk is used in Aapam batter. Take required quantity of batter in a vessel and add the 2nd coconut milk in it, mix well. Do not add the coconut milk in all the batter. When you make the Aapam at that time we need to add coconut milk,so take required batter and to it add coconut milk. Add 1/4 tsp of baking soda to this Aapam batter.
Now place the Aapam pan on gas stove. After it becomes little hot add a ladle full of batter to it. The batter should be thin and of flowing consistency.Then rotate the pan in one direction. The sides should be thin and at the centre thick and spongy.
Add few drops of oil over sides of Aapam and cover it with lid and cook on medium flame. Once done it leaves the sides of the pan. Then remove it.This is cooked only on one side.
To prepare White Saagu. Boil the chopped carrot, beans and potatoes and keep it aside. In a pan dry roast khuskhus, fennel seeds,cashewnuts.Then add green chillies and grated coconut and dry roast it for a minute. Allow it to cool and grind it to a fine paste.
In a pan add little coconut oil after it turns hot add small piece of dalchini, curry leaves,pinch hing. Then add boiled vegetables to it. Now add the grinded paste to it. Add a big glass of water to it and required amount of salt.Then allow it to boil for about 5 to 7 minutes.
After the Saagu is boiled add the remaining coconut oil and remove from flame. White Saagu is ready to serve.
Serve the Aapam with White Saagu and coconut milk. I also made coconut chutney.
