 Idiyappam is one of those dishes which has been my favorite right from childhood. 
My mother usually serves it with Egg curry or Kerala green peas curry and therefore my all-time favorite side dish for idiyappam is these curries. But you can even enjoy it along with Kerala Kadala curry or Kurma and many more. Mostly every one feels making idiyappam is something like rocket science, but actually, it's very simple and easy. There are few tips to keep in mind while making idiyappam if you succeed in hose steps you can get soft layer idiyappam.





Tips:


  • If your dough is dry, pressing will be difficult and the idiyappam will turn out tough.
  • If your dough is watery, the idiyappam strands will stick to each other while cooking.
  • Do not overcook the idiyappam, or else it will become tough/rubbery.
  • If making a large batch, keep the dough covered with a wet cloth.


Idiyappam is just a few ingredient recipes with the key ingredient being rice flour. Traditionally it was made from raw rice. The rice would be soaked in water until soft, then drained and later taken to rice mills where machines were employed to grind the rice into a smooth flour.  Then the flour is roasted and later used for making idiyappam. If roasted well the flour would remain good for weeks. But nowadays you get ready-made store-brought idiyappam flour which also works fine.
