RAWA /SEMOLINA /SOOJI IDLI 

Recipe courtesy – Valli

Rawa idli is a simple and healthy south indian idli recipe made with semolina or sooji batter. it is an ideal morning breakfast recipe and can be prepared without the hassle of grounding and fermenting the batter. it is made with spices and savoury and hence can be eaten as it is, but tastes great with any southindian accompaniment

INGREDIENTS

• Roasted rava /sooji – 1 1/2 cup
• Curd – 3/4 cup
• Water – 1 1/4 or 11/2 cup
• Finely grated carrot – 1/2 cup
• Grated ginger – 1/2 tsp
• Oil / ghee -1 tsp
• Mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp
• Asafoetida – a generous pinch
• Eno – 1 tsp or 1 small pkt as shown in pic
• Salt to taste

PREPARATION 

Take rava in  bowl , add curd and mix well .Gradually add water to make batter like idli consistency .Cover the bowl and keep aside for fermentation for minimum 30 mins or upto 2 hrs.

METHOD

Add grated ginger + carrot + salt to the fermented batter and mix well.

Heat oil in a small frying pan , add mustard seeds and let it crackle.

Off the flame and add asafoetida and stir .

Pour this tempering over the batter and mix well.

Grease the idli mould and keep water to boil in the steamer .

Add the eno pwdr to the batter and mix well till frothy .

***After adding eno pwdr ,you have to be quick.

Spoon in the batter in the idli moulds and keep it for steaming .

Steam it for 12 – 15 mins till it is done.

Remove and keep it aside for 2 mins.

Demould the idlis and serve with any SouthIndian accompaniment like chutney and sambar .

I served with red coconut chutney .

VARIATION – You can make plain rava idlis also – avoid tempering and adding any veges .

NOTES

1. Fermentation helps in getting nice fluffy idlis.
2. I have bought store bought roasted rava,you can also dry roast it at home .
3. I made around 14 idlis .
4. We can add baking soda instead of eno ,but I don’t like the soapy taste ,also it might change the colour of the idli .
5. You can make it instantly also without fermenting .
6. You can add other veges also .
7. While tempering some add jeera/urad dal /chana dal /cashew etc .
8. Instant rava idli withoutfermentation – Rawa /semolina idli
