Cracked wheat Idli
I am constantly looking for healthy breakfast items... even though we eat them at dinner... its better to have lit meal before sleep. Crack wheat is the most used grain in my house.. When i found this recipe featured in Madhuram's eggless cooking, I was instantly attracted to the recipe... The recipe was originally posted by Cham of Spice club.

Sour Yogurt:1 cup
Water: 1/2 cup
Salt: according your taste
Baking soda: 1/2 tsp
Cilantro & curry leaves: 1 tbsp chopped

Onion: 1 /4 minced finely
green chillies: 3 Finely chopped
grated ginger: 1 tsp ( Maduram suggested it in her post)
Preparation:
Heat oil and season with all the ingredients and fry the onion for 2 min! add to the dry ingredient (Baking soda,wheat, salt) mixture, pour the yogurt, water , Chopped green chilies , grated Carrot and mix into idli batter consistency (little thick).
Grease idlis mold, fill the idli mold and steam for 10 min. When you insert a toothpick, it should come up clean.

Note:
It is good to make the batter immediately before making idli. If u keep it for 1 hr, all the water will be absorbed by rava and it will be hard to make idlis.

Ashwini,saw your query in my blog. Try changing the browser. When I opened with Google Chrome(my default browser) I saw the error with pages going blank! When I opened with Firefox I was able to view the pages. So could be a browser problem!
That makes a great breakfast! Thanks for sending it to "Show Me your breakfast"Event!
Thank u all for ur wonderful comment!!!!
Perfect texture nice and healthy idli looks so yum.
your idlis look so awesome. I have tried cracked wheat idlis many times but failed every time :-(
They never held shape and did not fluff. madhuram's recipe asks to leave the batter for sometime while you suggest to make it immediately ?
also how many idlis does this yield ?
you have a very nice food blog..I am going to add it to the blogs I visit.
Hi deepa
Dont Add too much of water... Mine suckup all the water if i leave it for 10 mts and will be thick. Thats why suggested to use it immediately after mixing. mine doesnt puff like idli but holds the shape but one side will be flat and other side will be round....
