Idli dahi vada


Idlis are often leftover after the breakfast .This is something that i like to do with these leftover idlis..it makes a good snack for the 6 pm hunger pangs..
Ingredients:
  1. idlis - 4-5 nos (whatever is remaining)
  2. curd (beaten lightly) - 2 cups
  3. sugar - 3 tsps
  4. turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
  5. chilly powder - 1 tsp
  6. salt
  7. powdered roasted cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp
  8. tamarind chutney- 2 tbsp
  9. fresh coriander leaves (finely chopped) - 2 tsp
  10. oil - 2 tsp
Method:
Cut idlis into halves.Make a paste of turmeric powder,chilly powder & salt using a little water ;the way u make to coat fish pieces.Apply this paste all over the idlis.Shallow fry these idlis in an open pan.keep turning till all the sides r done.Remove into a paper towel.Add sugar & salt to the curd & mix well.Now place the fried idlis in a serving dish.Pour the curd all over covering all the idlis.Drizzle the tamarind chutney liberlly over it .Sprinkle roasted & ground cumin seeds .and finally garnish with fresh coriander leaves..Tastes best when served chilled.!!

Hey Deen the pictures are really tempting...I didnt know you had that many in your recipe bank....that is really quite a bit.....you know what inspired ME the most? The RAJMA Paratha...I have already soaked them for tomorrows dinner....I am sure we should be able to try it out with other pulses as welll....Hey mixing of the Soya Granules with the atta could be a good one too...Just thinking loudly....Will definitely come back to write how it turned....
