Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- Rice rava - 1 cup (For preparing rice rava see note below)
- Tur dal - 1/4 cup
- Grated coconut - 1/4 cup
- Green chillies - 2-3
- Salt
- Water - 1-1.5 cup
- Seasoning
- Oil - 4 tblsp
- Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
- Urid dal - 1 tsp
- Curry leaves
- Asafetida
Instruction
- Soak the tur dal for half an hour in water.
- After half an hour, coarsely grind the dal along with green chilli (or you can add the green chilli in the second step). I prefer to grind it along with tur dal as my family members do not like to bite the green chilly.
- In a kadai, pour oil. When it becomes hot, add the mustard seeds.
- When mustard seeds crackles, add urid dal. When it becomes brown in colour, add the curry leaves, asafoetida and tur /green chilly mix.
- Add water, salt and bring to a boil. Add the coconut.
- When it starts boiling, add the rava slowly and mix well. The mix will be like upma like consistency. Switch off the gas and allow to cool.
- When it becomes cool, mix well again and make balls out of it. Either round shape or oblong shape that is normally done.
- Place them in an idli cooker and steam it for 15-20minutes.
