We make this appam in Uruli and hence its called Uruliappam. If you do not have an uruli for cooking, you can make it in a kadai. Lets see how to make this Uruliappam.

Preparation :

• Soak the raw rice and urad dal for 5-6 hrs.

Cooking Method :

• Now heat  the Uruli.(If you do not have an Uruli, you can use normal Kadai).
• Brush some coconut oil on the surface of Uruli/Kadai.
• Pour one laddle of the batter and spread it lightly to retain a small round shape. 
• Smear some coconut oil on the sides of the appam.
• Cover the Uruli/Kadai with a lid and cook for 30 secs.

• Take the appam and place it in the serving dish.
• Make more appams in the similar method.

Hot Uruliappam is ready to be serve. Since this is not a fluffy kind of appam, take care to serve it hot.

Have this Uruliappam with Varutha Thenga Chutney or any Chutney of your choice.

Yet another interesting thing is that you can make an evening snack with the left over batter of Uruliappam. Check out my Ari Maavu Vada for the recipe.
