How to make Egg Hoppers (Biththara Appa)-Easy Recipe & Video
Crispy bowl-shaped rice & coconut pancakes with dripping egg yolk. It’s so appetizing. Biththara Appa (Egg Hoppers) are simply Appa (Hoppers) with eggs cooked in the middle.
Heat the Hopper pan over medium-high heat until it becomes hot. No need to grease the pan if it is an exclusive non-stick Hopper pan.
Pour a ladleful of the batter into the center of the pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter thinly. A thin layer of batter should stick to the sides, with a thicker layer in the center.
Quickly break an egg into the center of the pan and then cover and cook for about 2 minutes until the egg is just set and the edges of the Appa are starting to brown. (Lower the heat after adding the egg.)
Run around the edges with a palette knife and ease it onto a plate.
Best served hot. Repeat with the remaining batter and eggs.
