Each mouthful of this snack is a delight, as the wholesome, melt-in-the-mouth idlis give way to a crunchy veggie filling, with the peppy flavour of green chutney too. This dish is tasty enough to have as it is, because the rava idli batter is tempered and flavoured well, but for added taste, you can serve it with coconut chutney and sambhar .
The Stuffed Rava Idli Vegetable Sandwich is a sumptuous and tasty treat, which is also easy to prepare because you don’t need to grind or ferment the batter – just mix and make!

Can we use regular rice-dal combination instead of semolina for this recipe?

Whenever I make rava idli, the colour of idli doesn''t remain white. It changes to creamish colour. Please suggest how to retain white colour. Thank you.

Depending upon the quality of rava, the colour of rava idli is never pure white. It is creamish in colour only.
