Rava Idly | ರವೆ ಇಡ್ಲಿ | रवा इडली


Rava idli is a famous breakfast dish that was started in Karnataka's Tiffin centers. It's a twist on the traditional Idli, made with semolina, curd, and a few spices instead of rice. Idlis are steamed cakes, and rava signifies semolina.

It's quick and easy to make rava idli because it's an instant recipe that doesn't require any grinding or fermentation. Semolina or sooji batter is used to make this simple and healthful south Indian idli dish.

It's a great morning breakfast recipe because you don't have to worry about grinding and fermenting the batter. A rava idli recipe is a light, soft, and delicious idli recipe.
