I am sure you all know that breakfast is one of the most important meal of the day. But usually this crucial meal of the day, is always difficult, where mornings are always tough, and when you're busy it can be next to impossible. 

So lets start our morning right, with yet another quick, simple, and healthy breakfast that is delicious too. This quick breakfast doesn't need any fancy ingredients, just basic simple ones which we usually have at home. These are super soft rava appam's almost like cotton. You can have these with any simple chutney. I usually have them with Sambar , Dal or a Coconut chutney

These appams go great with Egg roast, chicken Stew, Chicken Curry and vegetable stew as well.

See Notes**

Makes about 10 small appam

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup Rava
• 1/3 cup curd (not too sour)
• 1/3 cup coconut
• Half onion roughly chopped
• 1 cup water
• Salt as per taste 
• 1/4tsp Baking soda
• Ghee/ Oil for greasing (optional)

Method: 

1. Take 1 cup rava, curd, coconut, onion along with 1 cup water into in a big mixer jar and grind it to a smooth paste. (Make sure not to add more water than mentioned) **
2. Pour the batter into a utensil and add salt as per taste and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda** and mix well 
3. Heat a tawa/pan and grease with oil or ghee (optional)
4. Once hot, add a ladle of batter and spread it a little, should be like a pancake or Appam. 
5. When you see bubbles coming up, flip and turn over to cook the other side
6. Make more appam with rest of the batter
7. Serve hot with sambhar or any chutney of your choice. We usually have these with this Coconut chutney

Notes: 

• These measurements mentioned makes only about 10 small appams. Make sure to double the quantity for more appams. 
• Make sure NOT to add more water than mentioned as it will make the batter too runny. We need a thick batter for this. 
• Remember to add baking soda right at the end. If you plan to keep the batter for while for later use then Do NOT add baking soda before. Just add before using
• The curd which you will use should not be very sour. 
• Baking soda makes it super soft and fluffy. But you can avoid it if you want. If avoiding baking soda make sure to keep the batter for about 15 mins before using it.
