    m_IMG_4380I am a huge fan of idiyappam, the rice string hoppers that are common in any Tamilian's Kitchen. The white color attracts me so much in the mornings that I can gobble a bowl full of idiyappam with ease! There is one catch though. I dont like it the usual way - adding grated coconut and sugar on top. I cant think of having something sweet as a full course meal, though S loves it so much. I would like it with a hot spicy curry. Can you imagine how good it is to have a plate of steaming hot idiyappam with hot spicy coconut based curry? I am just drooling with only the thought of it. As much as I love this combo, I would also like to prepare something that is easy and yet so tasty - thats when I stumbled up on this idea (which was printed on the back of a Rice Sevai pack). I chucked the ready made rice sevai and prepared fresh idiyappam to try it out and it just turned awesome! I am going to try different variations of this, soon.

    Recipe:

    Ingredients:

    • Idiyappam (separated) - 2 cups
    • Jeera - 2 tbsp
    • Black Pepper - 1 tbsp
    • Oil - 1 tbsp
    • Curry leaves - a handful
    • Asafoetida - 1 tsp
    • Grated Coconut - 3 tbsp
    • Cashews (optional) - 10
    • Salt - as required

    Preparation:

    1. Prepare idiyappam by referring here. Let it cool completely, before separating it out with your hands.
    2. Take a kadai, heat oil.
    3. Roughly powder Jeera and Pepper in either a mortar and pestle or dry grind it in a mixer.
    4. Once the oil is hot, fry cashews. Add curry leaves, let them splutter. Add the ground powder, asafoatida and mix well until the raw smell goes off.
    5. Add fresh grated coconut, give it a quick stir. Add salt as per taste. Let this cook for not more than two minutes.
    6. Add the separated idiyappam and mix well until the idiyappam is coated well with the rest of the mixture.
    7. Serve hot with coconut chutney. I like it plain as it is! 🙂
