chettinad kandarappam / sweet appam recipeThe single word chettinad is very powerful by itself and it has tied the whole world with its strong aromatic distinctive cuisine.This chettinad kandarappam is a new dessert for me to try. This as a karthigai deepam special this time and it turned to be damn good. I got the recipe from solaiachiskitchen but not followed her recipe exactly but took it as a base and did it. She has used two types of rice but I have used idli rice chettinad kandarappam / sweet appam recipealone but have added all the dals mentioned. Iam doing it for the first time and chettinad kandarappam was soft inside with mesmerising crispy edges with cardamom flavour. It may be a festive item but it will sure be a common snack for every one. Soaking the dal and rice for long hours is most needed to get a good puffy appam without a need for adding any cooking soda are any fancy thing. Coconut is yet another important ingredient that enhances the taste of this chettinad kadarappam.
