Ragi Idli

Ragi Idli could have never made it to our menu for breakfast, couple of years back. Only after my lil guy was born, we started feeding him Ragi and I started to try understand how wholesome and healthy it is. Hence I started trying different things out of it. The usual idli, puttu, dosa etc. started getting healthier by adding ragi in it. And its good to bring in some variety to the monotonous menu too. No doubt our family has loved it. Because every time I have served it, the plates have been left wiped clean :).

They were so pillowy soft. And that grainy feeling of ragi and its taste was mellowed down by a portion of rice that, it was loved by us, who otherwise would put on a sad face with the mere mention of the word ragi. If you are looking for including ragi in your diet, this ragi idli could be one yummiest ways to do it. So here is the recipe to it.

Rava Idli

Rava is always in stock at home, just like wheat or rice. Not that it's a staple but I bulk roast it and keep it handy to make something for breakfast or teatime quickly. 

These rava idlis are one thing that I end up making with rava. Since these idlis don't need to be risen or proved like the usual Rice and lentil Idli, they can be an easy breakfast option. Saturday's and Sunday's when you choose to wake up a little late, these tend to be a quick fix and a big hit during breakfast. Here is the recipe to the jhatpat and soft idlis.
