  • Kanchipuram Idli 

  • (steamed South Indian dumplings)


  • The recipe called for Cream of Wheat (sooji/rava), but as I didn't have enough, I used Cream of Rice, instead. These also contain channa and urad dals, ground cashews, green peas, a little oil, whole-milk yogurt, cilantro, water, and salt. I hadn't made idlis in a long, long time, as I don't have the steamer. However, for this time, I improvised one, from a Nordic Ware egg poacher and a covered pan. To my surprise, it worked! Yay, Idlis! The recipe is from Classic Indian Vegetarian & Grain Cooking, by Julie Sahni.
