This is one of the great twist to one of our most favourite dish, Idly. These idlys are quite famous in Hyderabad, but now a days slowly becoming famous in other different places also

These can be made using non fermented instant idly batter as well, but … fermented idly batter ka maza hi kuch aur hai na ….

The vegetable masala mixture, which is something similar to what we put in to Namma Bengaluru special masala bread toast , but it is made with one more twist that, we put chutney Pudi/Chutney Powder along with all the other spices and that makes a huge difference in taste

And one more main difference is these spot idlys are not steamed ones but layered with a delectable vegetable masala mixture , which is crispy on the outside and soft inside. The spice powder that is chutney Pudi/Chutney Powder we put in the vegetable mixture makes all the difference and thus makes this dish special

Actually, in this recipe, the vegetable mixture is made directly on the tawa, later divided into many small portions on the tawa itself, then they pour the idly batter on the mixture, cover and allows the batter to get cooked first, and further cook it until crisp on both the sides by smearing oil
