Rava Idli(Rava Idly) is my fav dish.Rava Idli is most popular in South Indian breakfast dish, which is very simple to prepare at home.It doesn't require any grinder or mixer to grind.Can also add vegetables to make healthier and testier.This idli is made with rava, which is so soft and tasty too...In these days there are many ready-made instant rava idly mix available in market and in stores, but those cannot beat the taste of soft and fluffy home made instant rava idli.
