Good morning Gita mam. I have tried many of your recipes. Came out very good. Mam can you suggest a substitute for kaju in your recipe of stew

[@GitasKitchen]

You can use roasted gram(chutney dal) instead

[@ashuk7693]

Very interesting recipes. The appam batter is already fermented so is it ok if I don't use Eno?

[@GitasKitchen]

sure

Maam, That was an amazing aapam with coconut milk & stew. It reminds me of my mother. She too made yummy appam. I haven’t made appam in ages but after seeing your video, I want to make it asap. I found the coconut milk you made interesting cos we use sugar but you made a syrup with jaggery & then added the coconut milk. Anyway thank you for your lovely recipe.

Maybe Eno qty is too much, omit it and see

[@rovinamonteiro1268]

[@GitasKitchen]

True

[@sandhyakerkar5428]

I always like your videos. Just one query.. the batter was fermented then why did you use eno ?? Can we avoid it ?

[@GitasKitchen]

It gives the lacy crispiness on the edges

[@nghngh5956]

I was completely surprised that you added ENO to the batter and I was told it’s a laxative - Probably when I do attempt to make this I must make sure a bathroom is near by.

[@GitasKitchen]

It helps to make the batter fluffy with the active ingredients.. it is not a laxative. it is used as a home remedy to treat acidity

2020 has turned out to be a disastrous year . But the Appam def helped make it better

[@jasmindermaolankar6774]

Tried 3 different recipes for aapam, yours was simpler and tasty too. I preferred the aapams without the Eno. Thanks.

[@bharatikelkar159]

Is it necessary to add Ino, also after fermentation ? But in old days when Ino was not there then what was the procedure? As this is a traditional dish so I'm asking.

[@GitasKitchen]

They used to add appam soda which is cooking soda
