Rava sweet appam is a delicious dish that you can make for Karthigai Deepam, I have already posted neiappam and wheat flour appam so thought of posting Rava sweet appam recipe this year.I loved making this appam and eating it too! Quite addictive dish that I couldn’t resist myself till the shoot was over.

This Rava sweet appam is made for different occasions and particularly made during Karthigai Deepam. It is one of the most liked dish at Kerala and coastal Tamilnadu homes.

Lighting diyas and seeing the aura the lighted diyas bring to homes is a bliss. I made the Rava sweet appam around 5pm on Karthigai Deepam day so I have some time to light the diyas and gaze the lights of all the homes in my area. The well lit homes, sparkles of the crackers brings a great positive vibe!

Believe me, though this appam is a simple and easy recipe when compared to the tradional appams it is equal in taste to the traditional appams! Mittu liked it more and could not differentiate when I made this !
