Rava Idli

Idlies are a rich and authentic Southern Indian breakfast staple and are much loved world-over. Traditionally served on a banana leaf with sambhar and chutney, these basic idlies are made with a batter of urid dhal (split black gram dhal) and sooji/rava or coarse semolina. With all the modern adaptations to an idli, these Rava Idlies are made without rice and still hold a special place in my heart, as they are the idlies that taste like the real basic idli of my childhood.
