Oats Appe Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup semolina (rava)
  • ½ cup yogurt (curd)
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup grated carrot
  • ¼ cup beans, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup finely chopped capsicum (bell pepper)
  • ½ tsp of mustard seeds
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • Salt to taste
  • ½ tsp of baking soda
  • Water as needed
  • Oil or Ghee for greasing the appe pan

Procedure:

  1. Add rolled oats and semolina in a grinder jar and grind it well.
  2. Add yogurt and mix well to form a thick batter. Let it rest for about 10-15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables and keep them ready.
  4. After the resting time, the batter may have thickened slightly. Add water as needed to achieve a dosa or pancake batter-like consistency.
  5. Now, add the chopped onion, grated carrot, capsicum, salt and baking soda. Mix everything thoroughly.
  6. Heat an appe pan (a special pan with multiple small, round-shaped cavities) over medium heat. Add a drop of oil into each cavity and let it heat for a moment.
  7. Spoon the Oats Appe batter into each cavity, filling them up to about three-fourths full.
  8. Cook the appe on low to medium heat for a few minutes until the bottom turns golden brown and crispy.
  9. Carefully flip each appe using a spoon or a wooden stick and cook the other side until it becomes golden brown.
  10. Once both sides are cooked and crispy, remove the Oats Appe from the pan and place them on a plate.
  11. Serve the Oats Appe hot with your favorite chutney or dip. Coconut chutney, green chutney, or tomato chutney are popular accompaniments for this snack.
