Aluche appe (Colocasia leaf appe)


                                                      
Aluche appe

I innovated this recipe for "monsoon veggies" competition in goan foodmania group on facebook.While thinking about posting creative and healthy dish made out of monsoon veggies I ended up in making Aluche appe.
I stay in Pune where it’s just impossible to find monsoon veggies other that alu (colocasia).So the only option left was using alu in my innovative recipe. This recipe is very healthy, tasty and can be prepared from easy available ingredients. It can be best option for breakfast, tiffin, and evening snack. I have given here very simple recipe; variations of it can bedone as per personal choice.
                      
      
         Ingredients
  • Chopped alu(colocasia) leaves ( 1 cup)
  • Rawa (1cup)
  • Curd (1cup)
  • Ginger garlic chili paste (1and half tablespoon)
  • Jeera (1tsp)
  • Salt (as per taste)
  • Baking soda (½ tsp)
  • Oil (for brushing appe pan)

                  
      
        Method of preparation

  • Then add baking soda to the mixture mix nicely and let it rest for around 3 hours.
  • After 3 hours add chopped alu(colocasia) leaves, ginger garlic chili paste, crushed jeera and salt.Mix well.
  • Heat the appam pan and apply oil in each of its grooves.
