Kothu Idiyappam Recipe, Veg Idiyappa Kothu(Tamil Hotel Style)
Kothu Idiyappam Recipe is an Ultimate Breakfast and famous menu in all Tamil Hotels(veg idiyappam Kothu aka கொத்து இடியப்பம்). This Idiyappam Kothu is made with leftover idiyappam, not with idiyappam Sevai. Minced idiyappam is tossed with Loads of Healthy Vegetables and Indian Spices. Kothu Chappathi Recipe which is shared recently is super hit among my Insta friends. Madurai Special Dish Idyappam Kothu is very familiar among South Indians. I have shared Madurai Kari Dosai, Jigarthanda, and many Madurai famous dishes in the veg version.
Feeling bored of having the same old Idli and Dosai do try this way of Making Idiyappam Kothu a healthy and also kids love it because of the color of the Kothu Idiyappam. String Hopper is the Name of the Idiyappam in English. Kothu is Minced so Kothu Idiyappam is Minced Idiyappam. Usually, Idiyappam Side dish will be Kurma, Salna or coconut milk will be served but for this Kothu idiyappam no need any special side dish it can be served with simple raita or as it is.
Here are some of my Idiyappam collections in Prema’s Culinary.
- Simple Idiyappam with Sodhi and Coconut Milk(steamed version)
- Ellu Sevai, Ellorai Idiyappam, Milagu Seragam Idiyappam Sevai.
- Coconut sevai, Thengai Idiyappam, Coconut Sadhangai Idiyappam.
- Thakkali Idiyappam, Tomato Sevai, Spicy Tomato Idiyappam
- Lemon Sevai, Lemon Idiyappam Sevai.
Some useful tips and suggestions to make perfect Kothu Idiyappam. As its name said Kothu idiyappam recipe in the hotel they make it with idiyappam they won’t use idiyappam Sevai so try to use Idiyappam avoid Sevai. May be taste similar but the texture of the Sevai will be like noddles not that Kothu texture. I Have added some beans, carrots and green peas you can add you fav vegetables of your choice. I have added tomato puree to get the bright color of the idiyappam you can add either tomato puree or fresh chopped tomatoes. Squeeze some lime juice and sprinkle some chopped onions and garnish with coriander just before serving the idiyappam for the best taste.
