489:Vegetable Idli

This is one of the healthiest breakfast delights,  which is commonly served in all Southindian states.Last night, I made this dinner platter-vegetable idly, tomato chutney and milagai podi (gun powder). Vegetable idli is quite filling; calorie rich food which is good for growing kids and also keeps us full for long time. Here is the recipe for Vegetable Idli

Ingredients:

Idli Batter                                        2 cups

Grated Carrot                                  ¼ Cup

Finely chopped Curry leaves             1 Tbsp.

Ground Black Pepper                        ½ Tsp.

Salt                                                   a pinch.

Ghee                                                  ½ Tsp.

Oil                                                      1 Tsp.

Method:

• In a bowl, add  all above ingredients expect oil, and whisk it  and make a thick batter and keep it aside for 10 minutes.
• Grease the idli mould with oil and pour idli batter into each mould.
• Repeat these processes till all the idli mould are filled.
• Meanwhile , add about 2 cups of water to the idli cooker and heat it.
• Now place the idli stand with moulds inside the cooker.
