Hello friends, How are you all ?? Wishing you all happy and prosperous life ahead.
Today I would like to share One of most common South Indian recipe, Today's recipe is one but you can enjoy it in two ways, Firstly, you can eat Plain idli with Chutney and secondly if you like spicy and veggies then you can have it for fry it. Let me tell you What is term idli is?? It is a savory rice/Semolina cake that is a popular breakfast food in southern India. These cakes are made with variation of different batters (made by fermenting the de-husked black lentils and rice), or with Semolina. As I would like to share Insta Idli using Rava/semolina. Where as Fried Idli or Masala Idli is a another yummy breakfast dish made with leftover Idlis. This is a mildly spiced dish made by sauteing vegetables and idlis in a pan.I like spicy fried idli more than simple idli. So today I would like share the recipe of both. Hope you like it.

☘️ 25O Grams Rava/semolina.

Instant rava idli is prepared with Eno instead of Baking soda and curd to fasten the fermentation process. Don't use baking soda, as it reacts with Indian spices, especially with turmeric, and produces idli which is orange in color, For White sponge always use Eno.
Step 1 Take one big bowl, Add samolinazcurd and salt. mix well making sure everything is well combined. Also, add cup water and mix adjusting the consistency. Add the Eno at the last, just mix it well.
Step 2 now, Grease the Idli plate with oil,Fill the plate with batter, Place the idli plate in a steamer and steam for 15 minutes.
Finally, enjoy rava idli is ready, you can enjoy it with sanbhar, chutney or sauce.
As i like the fried idlis, now take a kadai/pan, heat the oil, add Fenugreek seeds, waits untill it starts crackling.
Step 1 Now Saute the chopped onion untill gets brown in colour, now add chopped tomatoes, cooked untill it gets soften.
Step 2 It's time add indian spices like Turmeric, add some water, cooked it for 15 to 20 seconds.
Step 4 Cut your idlis into 4 pieces, So that it can easily mix with masala Gravy.
Step 5 Now Add Green coriander leaves, Mix it with light hands so that idlis doesn't break.
Tips Do not use idlis that are steaming hot, let first cool downs the idlis then add it on masala, as hot idlis are too soft, fluffy and moist, they can break in the oil while frying.
