Now a days appakarals made of iron and other metals and even non-stick karals are available. In the olden days appakarals were made of bronze. Neyyappam is a unique sweet of Kerala and is made in a special utensil known as Appakaral which is a pan with bowl-shaped depressions carved in to it. Allow to cool a little and make small balls of pori. Remove the syrup from the stove.Īdd the coconut pieces and cardamom powder and the pori and mix continuously so that the pori gets coated with the jaggery evenly. This is the right consistency for Pori and is known as "Kallu pakam" or stone consistency. If you throw the ball on a hard surface it should make a "thud". Collect the dropped jaggery with finger tips. This is the consistency for Neyyappam.īoil the syrup some more and drop a few drops into the water. This is known as jelly consistency or more commonly as tomato consistency(as it would be soft as tomato). Remove the jaggery drops from the water with your fingers. As the jaggery thickens drop a few drops into the water. As you are boiling the jaggery syrup, keep a bowl of water near your working surface.

Here is how to get the right consistency. When the jaggery syrup is of right consistency the pori will get coated with the syrup and will remain crisp. This is very important as otherwise the pori would sink in the syrup and become soggy. Boil the jaggery syrup to get a thick consistency.
Strain to remove sand and other impurities. Melt the jaggery in just enough water to cover the jaggery. It will have husks sticking to it and also some stones at times. You can use any container to measure the pori. I am mentioning the ratio of ingredients for 5 measures since that is the easiest way to measure out the required quantity of jaggery.
The preparation of both these poris for neyvedyam is similar. Pori is puffed rice and there are 2 kinds of pori: nelpori (made by frying paddy seeds) and avil pori (made by frying flattened rice or avil). As I have mentioned, the neyvedyam for Karthikai are Pori, Neyyappam and Adai.
