Varieties of Idlis are made, normal idli, kanjeevaram idli, tuvar dal idli, jowar idli, corn meal idli and the list is endless.

Here I made the Poha Idli which turned out super soft and could not believe it.   Hence I am sharing it with you all.  This can be prepared without much hassles.

Let us look at the recipe now:

Ingredients:

1 cup rice flour
1/4 cup poha, beaten rice
1/4 cup urid dal
less than 1/4 tsp methi seeds.

Method:

 Wash and soak the urid dal  and methi seeds for half an hour.  add one cup of water to the rice flour, mix well and keep aside.  wash the poha and soak with little water.  Grind the urid dal soft, add the poha and grind smoothly, add the rice flour and grind for a minute.  add salt,pulse it.  transfer to a container, mix with hand again. keep for fermentation.  Today, it took around 9 hours to ferment.
