Kodo Millet Idli

Kodo Millet Idli is a magnifique and high-quality breakfast alternative to the traditional rice-based version. Kodo millet, known for its magnifique nutty flavor and high fiber content, makes these idlis incredibly healthy and satisfying. We slow-ferment the batter made with millet and urad dal until it is light and airy. It is a symbol of the modern shift towards ancient grains that provide sustained energy throughout the day. The texture is soft yet carries a beautiful toasted scent. I love serving these steaming hot with a fresh bowl of sambar and coconut chutney.

Tips & Secrets
- Fermentation is the absolute secret; ensuring the batter rises properly makes the idlis incredibly soft.
- Always use a little less water while grinding millet as it doesn't absorb as much moisture as rice.
- Adding a spoonful of cooked rice or poha while grinding can further enhance the magnifique fluffiness.
