Sorakaya - 1 whole medium sized
Green chili paste - 3 tbsp or more depending on your taste
Sesame seeds, nuvvulu - 2 tbsp
Rice flour
Oil
Making chili paste:
Wash the green chilies removing the stems, put in the blender adding some salt, make a fine paste.
Preparing the dough :
Grate the sorakaya, no need to peel the skin. To the grated sorakaya add sesame seeds, green chili paste, more salt if needed now mix everything.To this mixture add rice flour as much as the mixture takes until you are able to make nice dough out of it, do not add any water . Depending on the amount of moisture sorakaya has in it the amount of rice flour it takes varies. Once the dough is made taste it and add more chili paste if you want to.
Preparing the Appam:
Make small ball the size of a tennis ball, apply some oil to one side of a ziploc bag. Now using your fingers press it into a nice even round appam shape or you can use a poori press using two ziploc bags on each side of the press.
Frying:
In a deep kadai thoroughly heat enough oil, slowly take the appam from the cover and put in the oil fry it until the edges are little brown.
NOTES:
- And you can eat these with plain sour creama as dip.
- You can make this appam soft or crispy depending on your like. To make soft ones dough should not be too hard and do not fry it for too long. And vice versa for the crispy ones.
