How to make Wheat Rava idli

1. Chop the ginger, green chilli and curry leaves finely. Grate the carrots.

2. Heat oil in a kadai, add mustard seeds and allow this to splutter then add hing, urad dal, bengal gram dal, curry leaves, cashews, ginger and green chillies. Saute well for 2 minutes.

3. Next add broken wheat rava and roast it nicely for a few minutes. Allow this to cool.

4. Take a big vessel add the cup of curd and beat this without lumps, add salt and water and beat well.

5. Add the roasted contents in the kadai to the curd and mix well, add little water to get a idli batter consistency.

6. Mix well add grated carrots and then add the cooking soda. Allow it to stand for 10 minutes so that the rava will get  fully absorbed with the curd.

7. Grease the idli plates with gingely oil and pour the batter in the plates and steam cook for 10-15 minutes.

Serve this hot wheat Rava idli with coconut chutney or any chutney of your choice.
