Kushboo Idli

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups idli rice ( kaar arisi)
  • 1/2 cup sago 
  • 1/2 tsp urad dal
  • 1/2 tsp fenugreek
  • baking soda, a pinch
  • Salt to taste
Preparation:
  1. Clean and soak rice, urad dal and fenugreek together and sago separately for 4 hours.
  2. Grind the soaked ingredients together, add salt and allow to ferment for 12 hours or overnight.
  3. Add baking soda, mix well, pour into idli moulds and steam for 8 - 10 minutes.
  4. Serve hot with tomato chutney. 
Note: 

I was looking out for vegetarian tiffin recipes as I'm now in a Jain school. It was then that I came across varieties of idlis and this was one such recipe. I don't know the reason behind the name, but the idlis did come out fluffy because of the sago.
