Soft Rawa Idli [ Karnataka Type ]










Ingredients :

  • Roasted rawa - 1 cup
  • Thick fresh curd - 2 1/2 cup
  • Salt - as required
  • Cooking soda - a pinch
  • Carrot - 1 [ grated ]
  • Cashewnuts - 10 [ broken into very small pieces ]
  • Oil - as required  [ Seasame oil ]

Method:

First mix rawa, salt, cooking soda along with beaten curd and keep aside for 15 to 20 minutes. Meantime, mix carrot and cashewnuts together and keep aside. Then keep the idli vessel on the gas. Grease each idli mould with gingelly oil [ nalannai ]. Spread little carrot, cashew mix on the mould and then pour one ladle of the batter in each mould and steam for 10 minutes in high flame and 5 minutes in low flame. Then remove from the gas and allow to cool.

Serve hot with onion chutney or molagai podi. [ Mix molaga podi with little sugar oil or ghee ].

P.S. I learnt this recipe from a TV programme which comes in Vijay TV conducted by Chef Venkatesh Bhat. It came out very well, nice and soft.
