    Idly

    Idly is another south Indian delicacy, which is low calorie because it is steamed.

    Soak 2 1/2 cups of raw rice, 1 cup Udad dal or 2 cups of boiled rice and 1cup Udad dal.

    Or you can use 3 cups of boiled rice, 1 cup raw rice and 1 cup Udad dal.
    Soak dal and rice separately.

    Grind them separately and after that mix well.

    Add salt and keep aside for more than 12 hours.

    Generally we prepare the dough in the evening and make Idly in the morning.
    Make Idly by using the 'Idly plates' .

    If you are not having Idly plates, no problem.

    You can use small cups or you can us cooker's inner vessel to make idlies.

    Grease them before pouring the idly batter.

    Serve with sambar or any Chutney

    Sandwich Idly

    Grate carrots and chop green chilies. Add salt.

    Pour 1/2 spoon of dough in the plate and put one spoon of the carrot mixture.

    Again pour another 1/2 spoon of dough and do this for other Idly also.

    You can use any vegetable as per your wish and make sand witch idly

    Children will like this. This is rich in nutritious value.

    Serve with Dosa chilly powder or any Chutney.

    Children like this very much:)

    Cut the idly and show them that they are stuffed :)

    Kanchepuram Idly

    This is a nutritional break fast. In this we are adding more dal than the usual once. And adding spices.


    To prepare this idly soak 1 cup rice and 3/4 cup udad dal.
    Even you can put equal also.
    Soak them in a bowl and grind them together.
    Grind cores. Add salt and mix well.
    Keep aside for 12 hours.
    And in the morning add crushed black pepper, asafetida powder, crushed cumin seeds, curry leaves and dried and powdered ginger. (suku)
    Add one spoon liquid ghee and 1 spoon oil and mix well.
    Then start preparing idly.
    No need for side dishes and if you want use curd as side dish.

    Note: this idly is one of the best prasadam in Kanchi Varadharajar Kovil :)
