Next combine the salt, sugar and yeast in the warm water and allow it to proof for 5 minutes
teaspoon active dry yeast - + /2 of luke warm water(1 cup)tablespoons sugar(2)salt - to taste - 3
I used an instant dry yeast, a variety that does not need proofing, hence I add it directly to the Appam batter
