Finally, I may have my act together. This time I (+1 friend) might be able to make it, barring catastrophe (which is possible since me mum is in town). So is this on?

Also, many thanks to the kind hostess for organizing.

I had tried this about 2 weeks ago. Pancake batter consistency. But I added a pinch of baking soda since the first batch was a little hard. After that they came out so fluffy. It is pretty easy. I just mashed the bananas thoroughly and added it to the jaggery liquid(use very little water), then added only rice flour and some frozen coconut and cardamom. Yummy!</p> So glad you asked!

However, when thoughts of Neyyappam are conjured, only Anna comes to mind. Anyway, I need advice: Last night, I decided for some reason that it would be a good idea for my skilless and clueless self to whip up some Neyyappam from <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/114970">this here recipe</a>. Now, my question is this: should the "batter" be more like a dough that you can roll into balls and pat into flattened discs and fry up almost like a poori? Or is it supposed to be some light, liquidy pancake-batter type mixture that you pour into the kadhai? Mine were more the poori type. And oh man, the smell of sizzling hot, smoky ghee really does permeate the whole living space, doesn't it? Goodness gracious me!</p> This is so totally, completely OFF TOPIC.

It’s like I’m fated to miss the ones at Amma’s Kitchen. I’m always available for Heritage, somehow. Some North Indian god is trying to give me non-veg hints.
