Idli is round fluffy steam cake usually made of fermented rice and split black gram (urad dal). It is south indian origin food and is popular as healthy snack or breakfast.
If you want your children eat more green and fiber, give them nutritious idlis pepped up with vegetables or make sandwiches for them. Play with taste, color and veggies.
Here I have made idlis with broken wheat (Daliya) , semolina flour and black gram.
Serves: 4-5
Preparation Time: 20 mins
Cooking Time:30 mins
Ingredients:
For idli batter
1 cup broken wheat (daliya)
1 cup semolina
1/4 cup black gram(urad dal)
1 cup yogurt
Salt to taste
1 tbs baking powder
1/2 tbs oil for greasing
Vegetables
1 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup coarsely mashed boiled green peas
Method:
For batter: Dry roast the semolina flour and broken wheat on a griddle till they turn brown. Remove and keep aside. Dry roast the black gram and pour 1/2 cup of water and cook slowly till they are tender. Mash the gram lightly and add to broken wheat and semolina. Mix them and add yogurt and baking powder with some lukewarm water. Add grated carrots and mashed peas and mix them together to make batter.
Now grease the idli moulds with oil and pour the 2 tbs of idli batter in it. Steam in a steamer for 10 minutes. Serve hot with vegetables soup (Samber).
