Appe / Appam

Recipe for quick / Instant Appe. This is an South Indian dish.  I have used Gits Idli batter to make appe. Its quick to make and tastes the same as you make from appe batter. Can be made for breakfast or evening snack and served with and chutney.

Ingredients :

Gits idli batter                                1 packet

Red chilli powder                           1/2 tsp
