Foxtail Millet Rava Idli is a healthy twist to the traditional idli, packed with nutrients and easy to digest. This recipe combines the goodness of foxtail millet with the lightness of rava (semolina), making it an ideal choice for a nourishing breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

4

half cup Foxtail millet rava

1 cup Idli rava

1 cup Yogurt

half cup Carrot

quarter cup Coriander leaves

1 teaspoon Mustard seeds

1 teaspoon Urad Dal

1 teaspoon Chana dal

2 pieces Green Chilies

half inch Ginger

12 pieces Curry leaves

1 tablespoon Ghee or oil

Salt as per taste

1 teaspoon Eno

1 & half cups Water

Tips

Ensure the consistency of the batter is thick yet pourable.

Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes for best results.

Steam the idlis on medium heat for about 10-12 minutes or until done.

Serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar for a complete meal.

Directions

Dry roast the foxtail millet rava and idli rava separately until lightly golden. Let them cool.

Heat ghee/oil in a pan, add mustard seeds, urad dal, chana dal, green chilies, ginger, and curry leaves. Sauté until golden brown. Add grated carrot and sauté for another minute.

In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted rava, sautéed mixture, yogurt, and salt. Mix well.

Add water gradually to make a thick batter. Let it rest for 30 minutes.

Grease the idli plates with oil and place a drop of eno (fruit salt) in each mold.

Mix gently and pour the batter into each mold.

Steam in a steamer for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Once done, remove from molds and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.

Individuals with severe gluten intolerance should exercise caution, as some brands of foxtail millet may have cross-contamination.
