Aromatic Nadan Crab Curry with light idiyappam – a soul-satisfying, protein-packed delight!

Delicate, thread-like steamed rice noodles from South India. Idiyappam, also known as string hoppers, is a light and healthy breakfast that pairs wonderfully with sweet coconut milk or savory curries.
Serving size: 4 pieces
Soak and Grind the Rice: Wash the raw rice thoroughly in running water 3-4 times, or until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in ample fresh water for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Drain the water completely. Add the soaked rice to a high-speed blender or wet grinder. Add about 1 cup of fresh water and grind to a very smooth, fine batter. Add more water in small increments as needed to get a smooth, flowing consistency, similar to dosa batter.
Cook the Dough: Pour the ground batter into a heavy-bottomed non-stick pan. Add the salt and sesame oil to the batter and mix well. Place the pan on medium-low heat. Stir continuously to prevent lumps from forming. The batter will start to thicken. Keep stirring and cooking for about 8-10 minutes until it comes together as a single, non-sticky, soft dough ball.
Prepare and Press the Dough: Transfer the hot dough to a large bowl or plate. Let it cool for 3-4 minutes until it's warm enough to handle. While it's still warm, grease your hands with a little oil and knead the dough for 1-2 minutes until it's smooth and pliable. Grease your idiyappam press (sevai maker) and the idli plates or steamer trays. Take a portion of the warm dough and fill the press. Press the dough onto the greased plates in a circular motion to form noodle nests.

The idiyappam is cooked when it looks firm and is no longer sticky to the touch. Turn off the heat and let it rest for 2 minutes before opening the lid. Gently remove the idiyappam from the plates and serve hot.
