Then why not try this recipe which are stuffed with some spicy vegetables which makes you happy in every bite...If your kids don't like to have idlis. i am damn sure that they will love this one. You can use any of your favourite vegetables in this. I served this with my mum's simple tomato chutney. These are healthy since they are stuffed with lots of vegetables.

      Very innovative and healthy idea. BTW Aarthi, is that a muslin cloth on which you have poured the idli batter or some use and throw away stuff; do let me know this, I usually grease the moulds but sometimes idlies stick to it...thanks dear for the lovely share.

      @Nisa Homey We don't have a non stick idli stand..So amma uses a traditional idli cooker..The cloth is a clean white cloth which she uses only for idlis..You could use muslin cloth too..it is not use & throw cloth.Using cloth for making idli prevent the idli from sticking to the pan.
