Sri Lankan hoppers, also known as appa, are an iconic street food from Sri Lanka. These bowl-shaped pancakes are prepared using a batter of fermented rice flour and coconut milk, cooked in a specialized curved pan called an appachatti. The resulting dish features edges that are crispy while the center remains soft. The origins of hoppers trace back through South India, reflecting Sri Lanka’s long history of trade across the Indian Ocean.
