PALAPPAM / KERALA APPAM RECIPE / SOFT IN THE CENTER , CRISPY AROUND THE EDGES /

Who doesn't love to pour sweetened coconut milk on the crispy appams & devour the divine appams from the God's own country Kerala.

This recipe yields rich and tasty appams with lacy edges and a soft center.
You can pair these appams with coconut milk as I did or with any Kerala based savory side dishes like chicken curry, egg curry or any stew varieties.
