7. This helps us while pouring the batter into oil directly.
8. This ensures that the appam has proper edges.
9. Meanwhile, heat oil in a Kadai over medium heat.
10. Once the oil is hot, take batter in a small serving spoon and pour the batter directly into the oil.
11. Once the appam comes up, pour hot oil over the top layer of appam using a ladle.
12. This enables fast cooking and helps us to get puffed appam.
13. Fry until the appam becomes light brownish flipping through the half way.
14. Appam cooks fastly and darkens soon.
15. Ensure they are removed from the flame once it turns light brownish.
16. Repeat the same for the remaining batter.
