Deleteall time favourite dish...
ReplyDeleteAnytime it is the best breakfast :)
ReplyDeleteperfect for any time of the day, yummy
ReplyDeleteI have it for brunch usually
DeleteI love to have idli anytime of the day..
ReplyDeleteMe too..never get tired of them
DeleteWhat is the difference between cooked rice and boiled rice and when do we need to add this?
DeleteAlpa, boil rice is parboiled rice .. we have to add everything while grinding ..
DeleteAbsolutely agree with idli being one of the healthiest breakfast option. My recipe is quite similar to yours except I dont add any cooked rice and use soaked methi seeds for the soft idli texture. Great share.
ReplyDeleteOk.. I started adding them recently too.
DeleteIdli is one dish I have never mastered. It's such a light but filling dish to have for breakfast. Your recipe makes it sound easy to make so I will save it to make soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mina.
DeleteYour idli looks light and fluffy.I am going to try this recipe as I only make with the dhal and idli rice combination so will need to buy par boiled rice to try your recipe.
ReplyDeleteDo try out and let me know how they turned out.
DeleteIdli is certainly the most healthiest meal one can have. The idlis look so soft and melt in the mouth kind. I've try adding parboiled rice next time when I make the batter.
ReplyDeleteDo that Mayuri. You will see the difference in the texture.
