JOWAR IDIYAPPAM

iDIYAPPAM or string hoppers are made with rice flour.  We can also make it with Jowar,ragi etc.  like we make the idiyappam with rice flour.  

It is very easy to make, tasty and healthy too.  Let us look at the recipe now.

It can be served for Breakfast, for dinner or for lunch as we love to eat this any time of the day and night.

Method:

In a kadai put the flour, salt, two to three tsp oil and mix well.
Boil the water.  slowly add to the  flour and mix well without forming lumps.  Do not add the water at a time, must add little by little. 
when it becomes a mass, stop adding water.
add again 2-3 tsp oil. when it is lukewarm and able to handle with hand, knead it well, cover and keep aside for 10 - 30 minutes.  
After that again knead it.  take portion of the same, put it in the sevai nazhi and press it directly on to the greased idli mould and steam it for 10 minutes.
After it is cooked, take out the idli mould and allow to cool, then you remove the idiyappam.
