Fried Iddlis

Iddli can be used to make many delicious snacks.I remember how my amma used to make Dahi Vada with fried iddlis .Iddli Uppuma is also very delicious and easy to make.Another quick and easy snack with leftover iddlis.And this is my favorite too.Here’s my recipe :

Ingredients:-

Idllis – 5 Chopped Onion -1 Green Chillies -2 Grated coconut – 2 tbsp Curry leaves – a few Mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp Chopped Coriander leaves – 1 tsp Grated Veggies like carrots,beans,cabbage – 1/2 cup(Optional) Salt – to taste Oil – For frying Ingredients

Method:-

Cut each iddli into four and deep fry it ,till golden brown.Drain it using a tissue paper and keep aside.Kids will love it just like that with tomato ketchup or chutney.This can be kept in air tight container for 2 to 3 days.This can also be served with little chilly powder sprinkled on it. Deep Fried Iddlis But i normally prepare a seperate mixture to add into the fried iddlis.And this is how i do: In another pan,heat 1/2 tsp of oil.Add mustard seeds and allow it to splutter.Now add chopped onion,curry leaves,green chillies and salt.Saute till onion turns translucent.Add grated coconut and coriander leaves into it,stir well for few seconds.Switch it off and spread the mixture over fried iddlis .Serve hot.(Note :-Grated veggies can be added after the onion is sauteed well.But be sure to cook the veggies first .You can either cook it in a pan or microwave it for 3 mts.) A tasty snack
