Idiyappam is enjoyed by the people of Tamilnadu and Kerala with various versions of side dishes such as vegetable stew, coconut milk, kondaikadalai kuruma etc. It can be transformed into lemon strings, tamarind strings, tomato strings,egg strings, spicy coconut strings and many other nonvegetarian variations. Nonvegetarian gravies like chicken gravy, fish gravy, mutton gravy or bone soups are also craving side dishes for these White Plain Idiyappams.
This main dish is a quick and very easy recipe to make. Another important matter is the Beetroot chutney is a wonderful and tempting side dish that goes very well with this main meal. It is a healthy and easily digestible dish to children, elders and patients. They are fond of this dish much with jaggery coconut milk.
Let us move to prepare now...

Best quality brand raw rice flour( I used Nala raw rice flour here) three cups

Dazzling white idiyappam is ready to serve. You can have it with any side dish of your choice. But I recommend Beetroot chutney is the very best combination for this Idiyappam. It will be the next posting in this blog.
