MASALA IDLY/VEGETABLE IDLY/TEMPERED VEGETABLE IDLY
If you are bored of eating plain and same style Idly, then here I have a solution for it. Just prepare tempering, add any finely chopped or grated vegetable of your choice and relish the yummy Idly. Today I have added grated carrot into the batter, but you can also add grated cucumber, onion, beetroot etc. Below is the recipe for simple tempered vegetable idly. Today I have served it with authentic coconut chutney and sandwich/stuffed sweet Idly. The below measurement yields 16 nos., of Idlys.
