Oats Idli Recipe
I love making idlies for breakfast..I have quite few idli recipes in my blog. You can check out my ragi idli, rava idli, wheat rava idli, thinai idli. This shows my love for idlies, all because my hubby loves to have it so much, so i make it quite often. And to a change from normal idlies try different idlies.
This is my oats version. I have a oats veg idli already in this blog. But this is a little different from that. It turned out so moist and fluffy, i like to have it with tomato chutney, but it equally taste good with sambar and coconut chutney..So give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Anonymous

Aarthi
@Anonymousit is bombay rava..
Aarthi

Aarthi
@AnonymousSkipping baking soda will make the idlies hard and rubbery

DURGA
Can we use same batter for making dosas?
Aarthi
@DURGANo it wont work i think. but give a try and let me know
kalai vani
Any replacement for curd plz
Aarthi
@kalai vaniCurd is what makes it fluffy and soft, so no replacement.
Sandhya Mohanasundaram
In the rava dosa recipe, I usually replace the rava with instant oats.. How I do it is: 1 cup oats (slightly fried and crushed coarsely), 1/2 cup maida and 1/2 cup rice flour.. It's crispy and nice...
Vidya Vaidyanathan
Hi AArthi,
I make oats dosa. I roast 1measure oats, 1 msr poha(aval), 1 msr rava separately and powder them with salt. This i store so that i can use whenever i want. To make dosa or rather uthappam, i add finely chopped carrots, beans, cabbage, capsicum, green chillies, curry leaves to it and soak for 15 min in curd. Then i prepare dosais. Very tasty and nutritious
Best regards,
Vidya Vaidyanathan

Hi,
Can I store the batter for a day or two- with all ingredients mixed except the soda bicarb?
My idlis turned out bitter, any idea why?
Thanks.
Aarthi
@AnonymousI am not sure whether you can keep for 2 days. You can keep this for few hours. thats it. Since it has curd, it will turn sour.
nisha m
Can we remove baking soda?isnt it harmful for babies?

Can we remove baking soda?isnt it harmful for babies??
Aarthi
@nisha mif you dont use baking soda, then the idlies will be hard
Veena
Thanks for your recipe...I wanted to use up the oats sitting in my pantry...however the idlis did not rise ...we're flat....I added both yogurt n eno...any idea what I could have done wrong?
Aarthi
@Veenai think u must have added too much eno, or the batter was too thin, it has to be thick
Aarti Gupta
Can I use oats powder instead of oats instant. Will I need to roast the powder? -Aarti G
