A perfect breakfast / dinner option if you are looking for something light and different and delicious 😀 

I have paired this idly with Ginger chutney here. Click here for the chutney recipe link. You can also pair it with other chutney options available 🙂

This idly is made of moong dal ( no rice ), makes it healthier than the usual ones. I made this recipe inspired from Hebbar’s kitchen recipe.

Do give it a try, you would definitely love it 🙂
