BM #84 Week 2 Day 3 -
In this series of steamed meals, today's idlis were a surprise. They were instantly liked at home. These idlis are rice free as well, if we can excuse the use of Beaten rice/Poha.
The batter fermented very well and the idlis were soft and fluffy.

Wow, those idlis looks simply awesome, very fluffy idlies.

I love cracked wheat and this is a great recipe to use it. I have never thought of making idlis with cracked wheat. I use it to make rava idli, but not the fermented version. Bookmarking this to try soon.
I make these every once in a while as we love the texture. Yours looks really good.
