Kerala Breakfast & Staples

Traditional Kerala breakfast items and staples made from pantry-friendly ingredients.

Why it matters

Meal Seeker helps you create Kerala breakfast classics like puttu, appam, and idiyappam using ingredients like rice flour, coconut, and yeast that you likely have on hand.

  • Prepare puttu with rice flour and coconut, steamed in a cylindrical mold for a classic Kerala breakfast.
  • Make appam from fermented rice batter and coconut milk for lacy, bowl-shaped pancakes.
  • Create idiyappam (string hoppers) from rice flour dough pressed through a sieve and steamed.
