Pazham Pori, also known as Ethakka Appam, is a popular fruit fritter made with plantains and all-purpose flour. In Kerala, it is generally eaten at breakfast or as a snack. It is easy to prepare and doesn’t require much cooking experience, so I guess most of you out there will be tempted to try it out.
