Since I got my Appe pan/ Aeblevisker Pan from back home, I've been using it to dish up various varieties of sweet as well as savory dishes. This pan is quite multipurpose and the non-stick version uses least amount of oil to churn up delicacies. It also comes in handy to make tasty snacks out of leftover idli/dosa batter etc. It is available online, you may click the link above to check it's availability in Target. It works very well and makes for one perfect finger food. I've incorporated the recipe for Carrot Ginger pancakes and adapted it for the Appe Pan, worked beautifully!
Recipe adapted from here. I have adapted it to my taste and requirements and have omitted the egg. Now lets get to the recipe.

Carrot and Ginger Appe
.
1 heaped cup grated carrot
1 small onion chopped fine
1 tsp grated garlic
1 tsp grated ginger
2 tbsp all purpose flour/maida (Use as required for all the ingredients to bind together)
Oil for the Appe pan
salt to taste
.
1. Mix all the ingredients except oil, use as much all purpose flour as needed to bind it together to a batter like consistency. Freshly grated carrots release enough water to bind it all together, do not add water.
2. Heat the Appe pan. Add oil in the depression of the pan, you don't need to fill it with oil, just oil it lightly.
3. Add batter into the depression and cook for 2 minutes till golden and flip. Cook the other side for 2 minutes. Appe are ready.
4. Enjoy with hot tea!
