Serve warm with hot potato stew.
Potato Stew Recipe for Idiyappam Ingredients: Potatoes – 6, peeled and cubed Coconut milk – 2 cups Onions – 2 Grated ginger – 1 tsp Garlic – 2 cloves Green chillies – 3 Pepper powder – 1 tsp

Boil the potatoes and keep aside.
Grind the chillies, ginger, garlic and pepper coarsely. Lightly fry this in some oil.
Add the onions and saute till it turns transparent.
Add the potatoes and mix well.
Pour the coconut milk and remove from fire just before it boils. If you boil coconut milk, it loses it flavour. Adjust salt at this stage.
