Idiyappam

Idiyappam :
It's a traditional  South Indian  breakfast. In chennai its  like a  special breakfast. My mom just makes it in seconds. I have always wonder how could she cook so fast.  Next to idli, idiyappam is an all time safe food as it is made of rice and steamed. Good for kids too.

Now making idiyappam is very easier with store bought idiyappam mix.
I am making it from home made Idiyappam flour. To check how to make Idiyappam flour click here. This will be helpfull for those who dont get Idiyappam flour.
Either you get it in store or make it home, the procedure is same to follow.

1.  Take flour in a bowl. Add salt to it.

3. Add water to the flour while mixing it. Add water just to make a soft dough as shown.
