One day some idli left in evening. So I thought to attract my family with interesting and tasteful breakfast. So in morning I had made an experiment with those idli and that became fruitful, everyone liked it in my family specially my 2yr old son liked chilli idli, a Chinese flavour it was surprising to me and my daughter liked the green most which are having a flavor of coriander,til ,green chilli and some dry mint powder,that is the story behind it.
