Rava idli is a variation of the popular South Indian breakfast item, idli, made with rava(semolina). Rava idli is served hot and is to be eaten along with Coconut chutney. A dash of ghee poured on the top of Rava Idli adds to the overall taste.

Serves – 10 idlis

Ingredients for Rava Idli Recipe

  • Sooji/rava/semolina – 2 cups
  • Mustard seeds – 1 tsp
  • Urud dal – 1 tbsp
  • Cashews – 2 tsp(broken)
  • Soda bicarb – 3 pinches

  • Water – ½ cup

Procedure for preparing Rava Idli Recipe

Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. Let the mustard seeds splutter and then add asafoetida and urud dal and let it turn golden brown. Now add the cashews and saute again till the cashews turn golden brown. To this add the rava/semolina/sooji and and again saute till it turns golden brown.
