Neyyappam

There is even a folk song ( Ayyapandemma neyyappam chuttu... ) around this snack. So you know how famous it is! These are rice pancakes fried in ghee. A batter of pouring consistency is made of rice flour and jaggery. Cardamom and dried ginger are added for flavour. Neyyappam is typically made of rice flour (alternatively, with rava or semolina), jaggery, ghee-fried coconut (pieces or grated), ghee, cardamom and milk. It is served as a tea time snack usually in the evenings. Neyyappam is also served as offering in many traditional Saint Thomas Christian (Syrian Christian) churches and Hindu temples in Kerala.[3][4][5] Unni appam is a variant in which mashed ripe plantains or bananas are added to the batter and fried to result in a ball-like shape.
