Indian Breakfast : Idly


Idly

The idli, also romanized “idly” or “iddly”, is made by steaming batter — traditionally made from lentils (specifically black lentils) and rice — into patties, usually two to three inches in diameter, using a mold.

Most often eaten at breakfast or as a snack, idli are usually served in pairs with chutney, sambar, or other accompaniments. Mixtures of crushed dry spices such as milagai podi are the preferred condiment for idlis eaten on the go.

The idli is native to South India and is common to the states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala, as well as being eaten by Tamils in Sri Lanka.
