Rava idly

Recently i started loving hot steaming rava idly .  I wanted to try from scratch at home and belive me it was so soft and yummy.
once you make your own mix at home, you would love it and would never buy the store bought mix again.

Ingredients:
coarse Rava/sooji - 1 cup
Yogurt - 1/2 cup
water - 1/2 cup
salt to taste
Eno fruit salt - 3/4 tea spoon
mustart - 1/2 tsp
urid dhal - 1/2 tsp
channa dhal - 1/2 table spoon
ginger - 1 tsp chopped
green chilly - 1 finely chopped
oil - 2 tsp
ghee - 1 tsp
cashew - few broken


Method:

soak the channa dhal in water for atleast 20 to 30 minutes.

Heat oil and ghee in a pan, when it is hot add the mustard, once they splutter add urid dhal and drained channa dhal.

Quicly add in ginger,green chilly and cashewnut.

Add the sooji and roast for few minutes until the nice aroma comes out.
switch off and let it cool.

Just before making add the yougurt, water and salt to the sooji mixture.

Add the Eno fruit salt, you should see the bubbles appearing. Mix well.

Pour them to your idli moudls and steam the same way like making regular idlies.
I steamed for 7 to 8 minutes.

Serve hot with cutney or sambar of your choice!!

Notes:
If the mixture is too thick, idly won't be soft.

Usually yogurt and water are equal proportion. Increase or decrease them to make the batter look like regular idly batter.
Make the idly immediately after addign the ENO fruit salt.
you can add finely chopped vegetables of your choice to this batter.
