Tawa idli
Method:

    • Cook the idlis and keep it aside. Left over idlis will be perfect for this recipe. But if you have fresh idlis, just keep it covered in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

Tawa idli recipe

Notes:

  1. You can add green peas and carrots to this masala.
  2. Pav bhaji masala gives a nice flavour to the tawa idli, so do not skip or replace with any other masala.
  3. Add little more red chili powder if you want the idlis more spicy. I made this mild spicy.
  4. You can add few chopped green chilis in the beginning to make tawa idli more spicy.
