Steps

20 minutes

1

Dry roast omam,just till warm and powder it in the mixer.Then add ¼ cup water and grind again.Filter this and keep aside. (You can wash, soak for an hour and grind too).
2

Sieve gram flour and rice flour together and add salt,butter,hot oil and the omam extract and mix well.
Then add water as needed(careful,needs very less) and mix well to form a sticky dough.
3

Press through the ompodi/idiyappam press in heated oil(oil should be heated just right,I.e; if you add a pinch of dough it should raise up immediately,dont heat till oil fuming)Form a circle in the oil and make sure you don’t overlap.Turn carefully immediately and cook till the bubbles ceases(takes very less time,less than a minute)
Drain in paper towel and repeat the process for rest of the dough. Ready to serve.
