Traditionally prepared with rice and urad dal, the delicacy can be prepared with ragi, oats, lentils or brown rice, but the simplest, according to me, is rava(semolina) idly. The soaking, fermentation and grinding process is eliminated in my cheat recipe and hence, it gets ready in a matter of minutes and can be relished with coconut chutney, green chutney, sambhar or even by itself.

Steps

1

In a bowl, mix semolina, curd, salt and water and mix well till you get a pouring consistency batter. Add some more water if the batter gets too thick.
2

Leave the mixture aside for 8-10 minutes.
3

Grease the idli moulds with vegetable oil/ghee to ensure that the idlies come off easily from the utensil.
4

Add eno to the mixture and mix well. Immediately pour the mixture into the moulds and steam on medium heat for 4-5 mins. Insert a skewer to see if it is fully cooked.
5

Keep aside for a minute and take out from the moulds and serve hot.
