Therali Appam Recipe is a sweet snack recipe made using fresh Bay Leaf. The word Therali in this recipe means Bay Leaf. This recipe is very famous in Kerala and is usually made as an offering to some of the deities during Puja.
Wash Bay Leaves to remove any dirt and wipe with a clean cloth. Set aside.
Mix Rice flour, Coconut, Banana, powdered Jaggery to make the dough (The batter should be little smoother than that of Chapati dough consistency)
Take a handful of batter and make a cylinder shape as per the bay leaf and put the batter in a side of bay leaf and close it from the smaller side.
Place a similar cylindrical batter on the top of it and close the bay leaf with its stem.
Repeat the procedure with the remaining batter.
Place all the prepared therali in a steamer.
Steam it for about 30 minutes.
Once done take it out in a plate and let it cool down.
Notes
You can sprinkle water if needed while mixing the dough. Alternatively, we can make cone with bay leaf and fill the batter inside. It can be made in Idli stand as well.
