Idli is an amazing South Indian sort of dumpling. steamed rice cake. It is made by steaming batter — traditionally made from pulses (specifically black lentils) and rice — into patties, usually two to three inches in diameter, using a mold.
Most often eaten at breakfast or as a snack, idli are usually served in pairs with chutney, sambar, or other accompaniments. Mixtures of crushed dry spices such as milagai podi are the preferred condiment for idlis eaten on the go. It is recognized as one of the most healthiest foods in the world.
The idli is a common fastfood available everywhere in India, especially in the states that make up South India.
I cook idli in an old electric egg poacher and that works great. I also have a petite idli maker than makes cocktail size-bite size idli. I love these! Sambar can be made with various veggies and as mild or spicy as you want.
