Using Aazol's Red Rice Poha

Red Rice Poha Idli

◷ Prep & cook time: 30mins | Servings: 4

This Red Rice Poha Idli uses Aazol's Healthy Red Rice Poha with idli rice and urad dal to make soft, steamed idlis. The batter is soaked, ground and naturally fermented before steaming, giving the idlis a light texture while keeping red rice poha at the heart of the recipe.


Red Rice Poha Idli

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Aazol's Healthy Red Rice Poha (about 80g)

  • 1 cup idli rice or parboiled rice (about 200g)

  • 3 tablespoons whole urad dal (about 40g)

  • 1/4 teaspoon fenugreek seeds (methi seeds)

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • About 1 cup water, for grinding

  • Water, for soaking and steaming

  • 1 teaspoon oil, for greasing the idli moulds

    • Instructions:

    1. Rinse the idli rice, urad dal and fenugreek seeds well. Soak them together in enough water for 5-6 hours.

    2. Rinse Aazol's Healthy Red Rice Poha once or twice, drain and add it to the soaking rice and dal for the final 20-30 minutes.

    3. Drain the soaked ingredients, reserving some of the soaking water.

    4. Grind the mixture in batches with enough reserved water to make a smooth, thick idli batter. Avoid making the batter watery.

    5. Transfer the batter to a large bowl, add salt and mix well. Cover and leave it in a warm place for 8-9 hours, or until it rises and shows small air bubbles.

    6. Lightly grease the idli moulds with oil and pour the fermented batter into them.

    7. Bring water to a boil in an idli steamer or pressure cooker without the whistle. Place the idli stand inside.

    8. Steam for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

    9. Rest the idlis for 1-2 minutes, loosen the edges gently and remove them from the moulds.

    10. Serve hot with coconut chutney and sambar.
