A simple recipe to make noodles with apples and corn flour. Here, I have used the apple paste to make the dough for the noodles. You can use corn flour or rice flour, both taste delicious.

Step 1: Ingredients Required

  • 2 numbers of fresh apples
  • 2 to 3 cups of corn flour
  • Half coconut
  • Sugar to taste
  • Salt to taste
  • Food color
  • A teaspoon of cooking oil

Step 2: Equipment

  • An Idli steamer works best for this. You can use any steamer available or use a wide mouthed vessel
  • Noodle press. I have used a mold with medium holes

Step 3: Make Apple Paste

  • Peel apples
  • Cut the peeled apples in to pieces and clean the core
  • Place the pieces in a mixer / blender
  • Add a pinch of food coloring
  • Add salt to taste
  • Make paste and store it in a bowl (Do not add any water)

Step 4: Make Dough

  • Now add the corn flour in small quantities to the apple paste and mix well. Do not add any water as the paste has lots of apple juice
  • Make the dough to the consistency of potting clay

Step 5: Temper the Dough

This step is very important, otherwise you can not press the dough in to noodles

  • Heat a teaspoon of any cooking oil in a pan
  • Add the dough and lightly temper it

Step 6: Make Noodles and Steam-cook

  • Boil water in a steamer. Here I have used an Idli cooker. You can use any wide mouthed vessel with a proper lid for this
  • Place the Idli pan and spread a clean cotton cloth over it. If you are using a vessel, then tie a cotton cloth on top loosely
  • Place the tempered dough in the Noodle press
  • Press noodles on the idli pan
  • Cover with the lid and cook for about 10 minutes

Step 7: Remove Noodles From Steam

  • After about ten minutes, check to see the noodles are properly cooked. If not, steam for a few more minutes
  • remove from the steamer and separate the noodles from the Idli pan
  • Brake the hot noodles loose

Step 8: Grate Coconut

  • The noodles are served with grated coconut, which will add an aroma and taste to the noodles
  • Grate about half a coconut using a grater

Step 9: Garnish and Serve

  • Spread the grated coconut over the steamed noodles
  • Sprinkle sugar over the hot noodles to your taste
  • Serve hot.
