Tips & variations

  • Note: You can add a few, 6 to 8 caster seeds along with urad dal for softer idlis. You can mix foxtail millet and kodo millet together and make idlis using the same method.

  • Side dish: Tomato kurma will be the best combination for this. You can even have this idlis with any chutney or sambar.

  • Two New Healthy Herbal Chutneys(Drumstick leaves Chutney and Thuthuvalai- Kandakari Chutney) also you can try.
