1 | teaspoon | Yeast |
2 | teaspoons | Sugar |
25 | millilitres | Warm water |
225 | grams | Rice flour salt to taste |
300 | millilitres | Thick coconut milk |
Directions
Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the water and set aside for 5 minutes.
Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl, add the coconut milk, yeast and sugar and mix to form a smooth batter. Cover and leave overnight.
Grease a hopper pan, heat it over a moderate heat and pour 75 ml of batter into the pan. Tilt the pan so batter forms a round shape, cover with the lid and cook until done. Ease the hopper from the pan with a blunt knife. From "A taste of Sri Lanka" by Indra Jayasekera, ISBN #962 224 010 0
