If u dont have usual idly batter, definitely we go for an instant version, for a change i tried out some instant idlies using cornmeal and rolled oats, they turned out super yummy,soft,extremely tasty at the same time healthy...When served with spicy coconut chutney,this idli tastes marvellous, needless to say that this prefect looking idlies are our favourite idlies now, we loved it..Sending to Satya's
