I found this recipe on Tarla Dalal’s site and made it , my father in law liked these steaming hot idlis very much . This is a wonderful recipe replacing rice with healthy moong beans and added with vegetables also. So let’s start the recipe . Yum
Ingredients :
1 cup moong dal /whole green gram
3 to 4 tablespoon carrot , grated
3 to 4 tablespoon cabbage , grated
1 teaspoon ginger , grated
1 green chilli , chopped
2 teaspoon besan /gram flour
2 tablespoon coriander leaves , chopped
1 teaspoon Eno fruit salt
salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon oil for greasing the mould
Method:
Wash and soak green gram in enough water for 1 day . Next day drain the excess water and grind the dal to a thick paste using little water if required.
Add the grated carrot , cabbage, ginger , green chilli , besan, coriander leaves and salt and mix well.
Add the fruit salt on it and mix gently.
Pour the mixture into greased idli moulds and steam in a steamer for 10 to 12 minutes till they are done.
Serve hot with onion chutney.
Enjoy healthy idlis!!
