Appam is a traditional South Indian breakfast dish popular in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Some parts of India. Made from fermented batter of rice, appam makes for a soft and fluffy pancake that can be enjoyed with coconut milk, coconut chutney, vegetable stew or spicy curries.
 
Appam can be enjoyed in many different ways. It can be served plain, with a sprinkle of sugar, or with various accompaniments. Kerala typically serves appam with vegetable stew or chicken curry while Tamil Nadu prefers it with coconut chutney and sambar. Some people also like to dip their appam into spicy egg curry or fish curry for added flavor.
