Instructions
- Soak rice (boiled and raw) together in enough water to cover it, for 2-3 hrs.
- Grind the rice in a grinder after adding to it the coconut water and cooked rice.
- Add salt to this blend.
- Add the grated coconut.
- Add water slowly. You need a batter that is not too watery. So be stingy with the water.
- Transfer to a bowl with a lid. Allow it to ferment overnight in the kitchen on the counter.
- When ready to cook, add baking soda, sugar and 1/4 tsp salt (you may need more salt if you're used to more).
- Mix well and keep aside for 10 mins.
- Heat the aapam skillet, grease it and pour a ladle full of batter in the centre.
- Swirl the aapam skillet in a circular motion, gently but swiftly so that the sides are thin and center thick.
- Cover with a lid and cook in medium flame for 2 minutes.
- When the sides start to brown, remove carefully and serve.
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
