Classic Appam is a popular South Indian dish made with fermented rice batter and coconut milk. It has a soft and fluffy texture with a slightly tangy taste. The batter is prepared by soaking rice and fenugreek seeds overnight, grinding them into a smooth paste, and allowing it to ferment for a few hours. The fermented batter is then mixed with coconut milk and cooked in a special appam pan, which gives it its unique shape. Classic Appam is usually served with coconut chutney or vegetable stew.
