POTATO STUFFED IDLI is a very interesting recipe which has the stuffing of potato within the normal idli. And this stuffing is made from the mashed potato having been cooked with few basic spices & onion and then stuffed inside the idli. It tastes super scrumptious and can be had as it is or with any chutney.
