Masala Idli

Masala Idli :

(All ingredients are underlined)

1. Take 4 left over idlis, and cut all into 1" x 1" cubes. 

2. Heat 3 tsp oil in a pan and add 1/2 tsp 'rai' (small sized mustard seeds).

3. When the mustard seeds crackle, add a pinch of asfoetida (hing), 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, 4-5 curry leaves, and 1 tsp urad dal. Stir fry till the dal becomes pinkish.

4. Add 1 small onion finely chopped, and 2 tsp rasam masala. Stir fry till the onion becomes translucent.

5. Add 2 tomatoes finely chopped. Add salt to taste. Add salt only for the masala as the idlis already have some salt in them.

6. Add the idli pieces and toss to mix. Let cook for a minute and then turn off the gas.

7. Serve warm.
