Vegetable Rawa Idli~ Making your morning healthy and tasty.





Suji idli is fast becoming an alternative to rice idli. Instant suji idli can be made in a jiffy and are light on the tummy too. Sooji idli using eno can be made for lunch box or picnic or even for a journey. The good news is that overall these idlis aren't too bad. Depending on the size, each idli will be 55-70 calories. The fat is more than desired with and 1 to 1.5 grams of fat, less than half of which is saturated fat but it is similar to the ghee content on the homemade rava idliHere is the recipe.


Ingredients:


1 cup Semolina (Suji)
1 cup fresh Curd 
1 tsp Fruit Salt (Eno) 
1 cup finely chopped Cabbage
1 chopped Onion
2 tbsp chopped Coriander
2 to 3 finely chopped Green Chilies 
Salt to taste 

How to make suji idli:


  • Roast the suji in a pan without oil till it changes its colour to light pink on low flame.
  • Keep it aside.
  • When it gets cool, in a bowl take the curd and add semolina evenly.
  • Except for the eno add the remaining ingredients. Keep it aside.
  • In a pressure cooker put some water to boil.
  • Apply some oil on the idli maker slots.
  • Now check the consistency of the batter, it should be of dropping consistency. If it is too thick then add some water and adjust the consistency.
  • Now add the eno and mix well.
  • Add your favourite veggies like capsicum carrot etc. and make it more interesting.
  • Immediately put 1 spoonful of this batter in each idli maker slot.
  • Quickly place this idli maker in the cooker and let it steam for 10 minutes.
  • Take it out and serve hot with green chutney.
  • Note: 1. Mix the eno only when you are about to place the idly maker in the cooker. Otherwise, the idlis will not turn out soft.
             2. If making in large quantities then remember NOT to add eno to the entire batter. Mix in batches.
