Method of preparation:
  1. Mix the rice flour and salt together. 
  2. Boil water. Add boiling water to the rice little by little. Mix vigorously with a spatula until the rice flour is coming together to form a moist dough. 
  3. The dough should be just moist and you should be able to form a small ball easily without it sticking to your fingers. Working quickly while the dough is still warm. 
  4. For preparing idiyappam we need idiyappam mold and steamer. ( or idali steamer). 
  5. Take one spoon of dough and place firmly into your idiyappam press or mould.
  6. Sprinkle some coconut over the tray or plate you are going to use to steam the idiyappam. ( it is optional).
  7. Start pressing the idiyappam onto the idiyappam mold or idali mold in a concentric circle. 
  8. Make sure it's not too thick otherwise it won't steam properly. 
  9. Place it over the ordinary streamer or idali steamer. Steam for about 10 mins. 
  10. Open, unmold it by using a spatula. 
  11. Serve hot with Kerala potato stew. Enjoy!!!!
