  3. Step 3

  4. Step 4

    Just before cooking, add baking soda to the batter and mix gently.

FAQS

    Rava is ideal for this recipe, but you can try using rice flour or a mix of rice and wheat flour for a different texture.

  2. What can I serve with Vegetable Appe?

    Vegetable Appe pairs well with coconut chutney, green chutney, or even tomato ketchup.

  3. Can I make the batter ahead of time?

    Yes, you can prepare the batter a few hours in advance, but add the baking soda just before cooking.

  4. Can I skip curd in this recipe?
