| Dear Shanvy, Your besan idli does look very tempting! As it happens, my husband doesn't like our "normal" idlis. He says "idlis and dosais are just various shapes of the same batter"! I will try your stuffed idlis and see if I have any success with making him relish idlis! Regards, Anitha |

My reciepe makes the use of Besan and Spring onions Besan and Spring onion Subji Ingredients Spring Onion one stock Besan -Quarter cup Jeera/Cumin seeds 1tsp Red Chilli pwd Salt Hing Haldi/Tumeric pwd Rai Oil Procedure First cut the spring onions then fry it in oil .Ensure that the bulbs are not chopped .Just chop the leaves and retain the whole bulb,in this case it will be better if your spring onions have smaller bulbs .Keep frying till leaves have changed colour and the onion has turned transulcent.Remove the same and keep it aside .In the same oil you could add little more oil if you wish add rai let it splutter, add Hing , then add Besan and fry till its leaves the raw smell, add haldi ,salt and redchilli pwd then add the fried spring onions ..and toss again .add salt acc to taste. sprinkle little water and keep it closed for 2 min ... and Your Subji is ready.. The same procedure can be followed using Capsicum too Thankyou I hope you will like the receipe |
