Karthigai Appam or Nei Appam or Unni Appam or Sweet Paniyaram owes its origins to Kerala. In Malayalam, unni means “small” and appam means “rice cake”. This is a festive sweet, made on Gokulashtami, the birthday of Hindu deity, Lord Krishna. These appams are soft, spongy, super tasty and irresistible.
