Rava idli is one of the best breakfast recipes. Rava idlis hardly need any preparation unlike usual idlis where the batter needs to be fermented and need some preparation work. Fine rava is lightly roasted brought together with a mixture of curd, coconut, coriander leaves, cashewnuts and veggies like carrot or peas. This batter needs to be fermented for 30 mins and its ready to be steamed. It is ideal for lunch box or evening snacks.
