Equipment needed
stovetop, pan
Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm coconut water, let bloom 10 minutes.
Mix rice flour with coconut milk, yeast mixture, and salt to form a thin, pourable batter.
Cover and let ferment at room temperature for 8 hours or overnight until bubbly and slightly sour.
Heat a small wok-shaped hopper pan over medium heat. Add a little coconut oil.
Pour a ladleful of batter and swirl the pan to coat the sides thinly while pooling batter at the bottom.
For egg hoppers, crack an egg into the center. Cover and cook 3-4 minutes until edges are crispy and egg is just set.
Serve with lunu miris (onion and chili relish) and coconut sambol.
