You won’t believe it if we add yogurt to semolina. Mix it well and then add water to prepare a completely smooth batter. Add salt to it, mix it well again, cover it, and let it sit for 15 minutes. After fifteen minutes, add the required amount of batter along with baking soda and mix it well. Then, gradually pour the batter into a greased idli plate, adding ginger, onion, carrot, bell pepper, and cabbage....

Mix semolina and yogurt in a bowl until well combined.
Add water gradually to make a smooth batter.
Add salt and mix well. Cover the batter and let it rest for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, add Eno or baking soda to the batter and mix thoroughly.
Pour the batter into greased idli plates.
Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, urad dal, curry leaves, and slit green chillies. Sauté until aromatic.
Add julienned ginger, sliced capsicum, onion, carrot, and shredded cabbage. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes.
Add salt, black pepper, sambhar masala, and tomato ketchup. Mix well.
Add the steamed mini idlis to the pan and toss gently to coat them with the spices and vegetables.
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
Ensure the batter is smooth and lump-free for soft idlis.
Grease the idli plates well to prevent sticking.
Adjust the spice level by adding more or fewer green chillies.
Serve the fried mini idlis with chutney or ketchup for added flavor.
Can I use regular idli batter instead of semolina batter?
Yes, you can use regular idli batter, but the texture and taste might differ slightly.
Can I skip Eno or baking soda?
Eno or baking soda is essential to make the idlis soft and fluffy. Skipping it may result in dense idlis.
Can I use other vegetables?
Yes, you can use vegetables like peas, corn, or beans based on your preference.
How do I store leftover idlis?
Store leftover idlis in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat before serving.
Can I make this recipe vegan?
Yes, you can replace yogurt with a plant-based alternative like coconut yogurt to make it vegan.
