Rava Idli

Hello, my foodie friends......I hope this post finds you in the best of your health. Today I'm going to share a very healthy and quick breakfast recipe which is very easy to prepare and requires just 15-20 mins of your time. I can understand how busy mornings are in every household so I always stress on having quick, easy but healthy breakfast recipes that can be prepared in a jiffy.

Rava Idli or Semolina Idlis is a very popular breakfast/tiffin item originated in Bengaluru (then Bangalore) Karnataka. It is a variation of the traditional Rice Idli and is made with Semolina (Rava), curd, and few spices. Rava Idli requires no fermentation so they can be prepared instantly.

Traditional Idlis (recipe here) are made by soaking rice and lentil, grinding, and then fermenting the mixture. Rava Idli is an excellent alternative to this traditional Idli. They are served with Coconut Chutney and Sambhar. If you want you can temper the Rava Idli batter otherwise they can be prepared as it is.

As this Idli recipe doesn't require the hassle of soaking, grinding, and fermenting the batter this Rava Idli is a very consistent breakfast item at my home. Nowadays you can get packaged Rava Idli mix in the stores but nothing can beat the taste and hygiene of homemade food.

So, without any further ado let's begin with the recipe:

Sooji/ Rava Appe

           

Hello my Foodie Friends...........Winter has arrived in almost all the regions of India and the market is loaded with all the winter veggies. Whenever I visit the market I can't resist myself from buying them without giving a second thought what will I do with them. 

Winter is known for veggies like green beans, capsicum, carrots, cauliflower etc. You can enjoy them in number of ways but it's very tricky to feed veggies to our kids. Moreover if your baby is a picky or fussy eater then this task becomes more troublesome. We all struggle to come up with new ideas and recipes for lunch box and breakfast. Even if you give your kid's favorite dish in their lunch box the lunchbox is never empty. 

Therefore, we as mother's should come up with some new and brilliant ideas to feed veggies to our babies. The food should look interesting and cute that's the trick to allure the kids. 

So, today in this video we'll make Sooji Appam or Rava Appe which is loaded with veggies. It is very easy to make and just needs 15 mins of your time if you do the prep work beforehand.

So, let's begin with the recipe:
