#cnv26 These Falahari Sago Appe with Kiwi Relish are a brilliant fusion of traditional fasting ingredients and modern, zesty flavors. Using an Appe pan allows you to achieve that perfect golden-brown crispiness with minimal oil, making this a healthy and sophisticated choice for vrat. The addition of a tangy kiwi relish is a masterstroke—it cuts through the starchiness of the sago and potato with a vibrant, tropical brightness.
For the Sago Appe: In a large bowl, combine the soaked sago, mashed potatoes, crushed peanuts, chilies, ginger, cumin, coriander, and rock salt. Knead gently into a soft dough.
Grease your palms with a little ghee and roll the mixture into small, smooth, ping-pong-sized balls.
Heat the appe pan on a medium-low flame and add a drop of ghee into each cavity.
Place the balls in the cavities and cook, turning them occasionally with a wooden skewer or spoon until they are uniformly golden and crisp.
For the Relish: While the appe cook, whisk together the mashed kiwi, roasted cumin, black pepper, and mint. Adjust sweetness as desired.
Assemble: Top each appe with a small dollop of the kiwi relish and a single pomegranate seed.
Serve immediately while the appe are hot and the relish is cool.
Suggestion – Use of pomegranate seeds adds a beautiful “pop” of color.
To keep the kiwi slices looking fresh, plate them just before serving.
