Idli – Steamed Rice Cakes

While browsing through google for the definition of idli, I found a particularly interesting page on Wikipedia, which has nice mouthwatering photographs of idlis with side dishes and a history behind idlis.

Idlis are the staple breakfast diet of the majority of the South Indians. And there are many varieties of idlis and the method of preparation of even the same variety differs from people to people. Here I shall give you the types of idlis which my mother makes along with the side dishes which go well with them. Also I shall give you some of our household favorites made with leftover idlis.

Hope you will enjoy this as much as we have done it.
