    Title: Idiappam (Jaffna String Hoppers)
    Categories: Indian
    Yield: 1 Batch

    2 c Red rice flour; roasted
    Water; boiling

    Idiappams are made with a special wooden press, much like a spaghetti
    maker, available from most South Indian and Sri Lankan groceries.

    Add 1 ts salt to the boiling water and mix it slowly into the flour
    with a wooden spoon. The dough should be thick and not stick to the
    mixing container. Take a little dough and put into the idiappam press
    and press out the dough strings in a circular motion over idiappam
    steamers. Steam the idiappam for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve for dinner
    or lunch with sodi or coconut chutney.
