Ingredients

  • 16 mini idli’s
  • 4 tablespoon curd
  • 1 tablespoon big onion chopped finely
  • a tiny pinch red chilli powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon roasted jeera powder
  • a generous pinch chat masala powder
  • 1 teaspoon chaat chutneys each
  • 1/8 cup plain sev
  • 2 teaspoon butter
  • coriander leaves to garnish
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Make idlis in mini idli mould.Carefully scoop it out and let it cool down.
  • Then in a dosa tawa toast it using butter.
  • Arrange the mini idlis in the serving plate, first add curd, then add sweet and green chutney then add raw onion,sprinkle roasted jeera powder and chat masala powder.
  • Finally garnish with sev and coriander leaves.
  • Serve idli chaat immediately.

Notes

  • Adding curd is purely optional but I recommend adding it.
  • I just wanted to make mini idli’s so I used my mini idli mould.You can even use leftover normal idli cut into cubes.
  • You can replace butter with oil Adding roasted jeera powder gives a great flavour.
  • You can even deep fry the idlis or oven toast them. I just toasted in dosa tawa.
  • As I just toasted the idlis I didnt drain in tissue paper, if you are deep frying and find too much oil, then drain in tissue paper and then use it.
  • Tawa toasted idlis aren’t very crisp they are slightly crispy.If you want crispy idlies then deep frying is the only option.
  • You can fry in paniyaram pan also.
