Idli is one of the most common breakfast in our home, but eating the same plain Idli every time is quite boring(for me!!). Inspired from Masala Dosai, in which masala is stuffed in dosai, tried stuffing mixed veg masala into idli. This is a simple dish yet tastes delicious.
Masala Idli – Stuffed Rice Cake:
Preparation Time : 10 mins | Cooking Time : 10 mins | Serves : 4
Recipe Category: Breakfast
Ingredients:
Idli / Dosa batter – 1 cup + 1/2 cup
Mixed Vegetable Dry – 1/2 cup
Oil as needed to grease
Method:
- Grease the idli plates with oil and switch on the steamer with enough water. I used my cooker and steamed without whistle(weight)
- Pour 1 tbsp of idli batter into each impression (mould) and place the flattened mixed vegetable stuffing and pour 2 tbsp idli batter to cover the filling.Stack up all the idli plates and steam for 12-15 mins.Rest it for another 5 mins
- Dip a clean wide spoon in water and remove the idlis from the plate.Keep dipping the spoon in water in between to help in taking out the idli easily
- Keep them in hot box or serve directly on to a plate.Always serve these idlis hot
