    Method
  1. Wash and soak the rice for 2 to 3 hours. Drain.
  2. Grate the coconut, add 2 cups of water and extract the coconut milk. Strain.
  3. Grind the raw rice and cooked rice in a little coconut milk. Remove from the grinder and add the sugar, the remaining coconut milk and salt.
  4. Mix the yeast with a little warm water, add to the rice paste and mix well. The batter should be of dropping consistency.
  5. Cover and keep for 2 to 3 hours. Then add the spinach puree.
  6. Heat an appam kadai or a deep non-stick tava and grease it lightly with oil.
  7. Pour 1 big spoon of the batter into it. Slowly rotate the batter on the tava so that a thin layer forms on the side while the middle remains thick.
  8. Cover and cook for 1 minute. The middle part will be fluffy.
  9. Repeat for the remaining batter.
  10. Serve hot with vegetable stew.

Netted, lacy delicious rice pancakes so quick to make,faster than dosas. Served hot, hot Spinach Appam at my south Indian cuisine party at home without any stress.The spinach puree adds flavour and a lovely green colour.
