Instructions

  • Combine the raw rice and urad dal together and rinse it a couple of times. Then, soak it in enough water in a large bowl. The rice and dal should be completely submerged in water. Soak it for 2 hours at least. Once the rice and dal are soaked enough, drain the water. Grind the soaked rice and dal along with ½ cup of water, until you get a smooth paste. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Cover the bowl and keep it in a warm place to ferment for about 8 hours. Once the batter is fermented, heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a small non-stick pan. When the oil is hot, toss the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, curry leaves, asafoetida and green chillies. Saute them on a slow flame for a few minutes. Once they are done, add the onions and crushed peanuts and saute on a medium flame for another 3-4 minutes. Now, add this tempering to the rice and dal batter. Add salt to the batter and mix well. Grease the appe mould with some oil and heat it on a slow flame. Pour about 1 teaspoon of oil into every mould. Wait until the oil is hot and pour about 1 tablespoon of batter into each mould. Cook until you see the sides turning brown and then flip the appe using a fork or a long stick. Let the other side cook as well. Repeat the same process for the remaining batter. Serve the appe.
