    About Rava Appam

    Sweet Rava Appam is fried in ghee/Oil. Sweet Rava Appam originated in Kerala, a southern Indian state, and coastal Karnataka. The name is derived from the Tamil word appam, which means pancake. 

    Appam is typically made with rice flour (or Sooji), jaggery, ghee-fried coconut (either pieces or grated), ghee, cardamom, and milk. It is typically served as a tea time snack in the evenings. In Kerala, Neyyappam is also served as an offering in Hindu temples. Some Christian groups in Kerala have also adopted this practise. Unniappam is a variation in which mashed ripe plantains or bananas are mixed into the batter before being fried into a ball-like shape.

      aarthi, take care of your website.. it is very slow, not loading properly and many times crashes the whole crome itself. looks like it is because of too much of advertisements.

      even though tempted to check the recipes, scared to open because of this issue!

      my speed is really good and i am not seeing this issue with any other site
