Instant homemade Idiyappam made with Rice Vermicelli
 
 
Ingredients
  • Rice vermicelli- 1 packet
  • Water- enough to cook vermicelli
  • Salt
  • Coconut grated (optional)
Instructions
  1. Cook the rice vermicelli in boiled water ( add a dash of salt to the water while boiling) till it's cooked but not too tender, about 5 minutes.
  2. Drain the water and let the cooked vermicelli cool down.
  3. Have the Idiyappam plates dried and ready on the counter top.
  4. You could grease the small depressions on the plate with little oil.
  5. Sprinkle a handful of grated coconut on each depression.
  6. Place handful of cooked vermicelli over the grated coconut.
  7. Stack the plates and place it in the steamer and steam cook it for 5 minutes.
  8. After it cools down, take the plates out of the steamer and gently slide the Idiyappam onto a platter.
  9. Serve with your favorite curry.
  10. I served with Poached Egg curry, recipe on its way.
Notes
If you don't have the Idiyappam plates, you could just spread the vermicelli on small steel flat plates and steam cook it.
If you don't care about getting the Idiyappam shape, then you could have the cooked vermicelli along with your favorite curry.
