Deepika Shakya

Idli is a versatile South Indian dish that can be varied in several ways.

Here are 5 types of idli to easily make at home

The traditional version made from fermented rice and urad dal (black gram) batter. Soft, fluffy, and mildly tangy.

Classic Idli

 Made from semolina (rava) instead of rice. This version is quicker to prepare, and it has a slightly grainier texture but is still soft and spongy.

Rawa Idli

 A nutritious twist on the classic, using oats along with urad dal and some rice. It adds extra fiber and is a great option for a healthy breakfast.

Oats Idli

Made with ragi flour, this version is a good source of calcium and iron.

Ragi Idli

Includes finely chopped vegetables like carrots, beans, and peas mixed into the idli batter.

Vegetable Idli

Each type of idli is easy to make at home and caters to different tastes and dietary needs.
