Idiyappam Recipe | Sevai Recipe | How to make Idiyappam

Idiyappam | Sevai and Coconut Milk

Recipe Cuisine: Indian | Recipe Category: Breakfast | Dinner
Preparation Time:20 mins | Serves: 2-3

Ingredients

Idiyappam | Rice flour - 1 cup

Hot water- 1 cup + more as needed

For Coconut Milk:

Coconut -1 (med )

Sugar/Jaggery as needed

Elachi - 3

For Idiyappam | Sevai:

I am using idiyappam flour here, so no need to add salt or dry roast.But if you are using rice flour then u have to add salt and dry roast till all the moisture evaporated and make sure dont brown or change the color of rice four.

Make sure the water is rolling boil and add it to the rice flour slowly and mix well till you get a smooth mixture .Once its warm enough to hold in hands,knead it to a soft dough.

Now in a idli pan add enough water and allow it to heat ,and keep ready with idli steamer plate or idiyappam plate by greasing it with oil or use banana leaf.

Now take a portion of the dough and place it in a idiyappam press | Muruku press and start pressing it to the plate .

Once done close the lid and allow it to cook till done(it may take 10-15 mins).

Repeat the same for remaining dough(when the dough is not in use always cover it with a wet cloth).

For Coconut Milk:

Grind the coconut and elachi together and take the 1st thick milk,And repeat the process for 2nd and 3rd milk.

Now mix the sugar | jaggery to it and serve with idiyapam.

You may not using all the milk , so reserve some milk before adding sugar and use it for any other recipes. .

Notes:

You can also make sweet idiyappam by adding grated coconut and jaggery also serve it with banana too.
Can also prepare Savoury idiyapam like Lemon idiyapam,Tomato idiyappam, cocunut idiyappam and Tamrind idiyappam.
