Instant Vermicelli Idly

Tried and tasted by Nivedita

Hi All,

A wonderful, healthy, tasty and easiest breakfast for the whole family. Even you can feed this to 9 months infant, who has started to eat just now. I always love to try Idly s in different size bowls, as kids will enjoy it.

But, my both daughters won't like it at all!! I don't know the reason, but they both have it either two or one idly. So I do not make this more for them. Ask me?? I love to have it any time. 

Ingredients :

Very thin vermicelli - 1 cup

Bombay rawa or semolina - 1 cup

Fresh curds - 1 cup

Salt to taste

Eating soda or Bi carb soda - 1/8 tsp

Carrot or potato - 1 medium, cleaned and grated (not in the photo, but usually I add it)

Ghee - 1 tbsp to roast

Oil to apply to the mould

Roast the semolina and vermicelli (Seperately) till you get a very good aroma. Allow it to cool. When it is cold, add all other ingredients and mix it properly to make it into nice batter. While doing this, Keep the cooker with 1 cup water on heat. 

Apply oil to the mould and pour the batter in to the moulds(Each mould will hold 2 tbsp batter). Keep it in the cooker and steam it without wait on the cooker for 12 to 15 minutes.

Once done, serve hot with ghee, chutney powder, coconut chutney or sauce.
