I wanted to try instant oats idly for a long time. I used to make a version of this before,by adding a oats as major part in the rava idly,but when I saw the Instant oats idli at sharmis passions,they looked very tempting to try,more over,I wanted to try godumai rava idly too,and this recipe is a double treat for me as it combines both. I love this recipe very much and this tastes very similar to the usual rava idly,more healthy undoubtedly! I made variations a bit to suit my taste buds and convenience..
Ingredients
| Oats(I used quick cook) | 1 cup |
| Wheat rava(godhumai rava) | 1/2 cup |
| Curd | 1/2 cup |
| Vegetables of ur choice | As needed |
| Water | 1/2 cup+more if needed |
| salt | 1 tsp(adjust per ur taste) |
| Eno fruit salt | 1/2 tsp |
| Lemon Juice | from 1/2 of a lemon |
| Green chillies,finely chopped | 2 nos |
| Chopped coriander leaves | 1 tblsp |
| Chopped ginger | 1 tsp |
To Temper
| Oil | 11 tsp - tblsp |
| Mustard | 3/4 tsp |
| Urad dal | 1 tsp |
| Channa dal | 1 tsp |
| Curry leaves | 1 sprig |
Method:
- Dry roast Oats for 3 minutes in medium flame until nice aroma comes.Powder it coarsely after it cools down.
- Heat a pan with oil and temper the items in the table ‘To temper’ ,followed by the veggies u decided to add and ginger,green chillies,coriander leaves. Give it a quick fry and add the wheat rava and fry for a minute in medium flame.

- Transfer to mixing bowl,add salt,curd,lemon juice,water as required and make a batter,which consistency is similar to our idly batter.(neither too runny nor too thick). Mix well. Add Eno fruit salt just before making idlies and mix well. This will give you a frothy/airy batter which gives a soft spongy idly.
- Pour the batter in a greased idly plate and cook just like you cook the regular idlies but for more time,say 10-15 minutes,until done.

- Serve hot with any chutney of your choice.
Am happy to send this to Event CWF : Oats.. at Priya’s Blog,Originated at Kiran’s blog

ReplyDeletewat is d other option for eno fruit salt.raji mam
ReplyDeleteYou can try using 1/2 tsp cooking soda, but eno fruit salt makes it very soft. But cooking soda can be added
ReplyDeleteHi..I tried out this recipe and it turned out really well. Tasted great with sambhar. Me and my husband loved it :).
ReplyDeleteHi Raji, Can i keep this idli's for few hours and den heat in a microwave for 30 secs and den serve.
ReplyDeleteThx
Hi Raji,
ReplyDeleteCan i keep these idlis's for few hrs and den serve.
Thx
Yes it will stay good, hot pack will be a better option, still if you keep covered properly, its is good even after cooling down.
ReplyDeleteHi, made those idlis today, Awesome!
ReplyDeleteGave the recipe a go and the idlis turned out fab! Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteThanks raks. It came out very well except the idls were not raised like normal ones. I cooked more than 20 mints. I made sure I followed all ur instructions. What do u think I'm missing?
ReplyDeleteThanks Raji for the wonderful oat iddli recipe.My kids loved it along with your corriander chutney recipe(not to mention that we too liked but to please the kids palate it is tough).
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried steaming these idlis in the microwave?
ReplyDeletecan i avoid the eno fruit salt or cooking soda and just make the idlys as it is? will hey come out good still?
ReplyDeleteYes sure you can try that.
