Ingredients for Thinai Idly
Thinai / Foxtail Millet - 2 cups Normal Cooking Rice - 1 cup ( I used Red Samba Rice) Urad dal / Ulundu Paruppu - 1 cup Fenugreek Seeds / Vendayam - 1 tsp Salt to taste
Few days back me and hubby were talking about healthy eating. We finally came to a decision that including millets in our diet atleast once a week. And immediately we went for a purchase, igot two packets of thinai, two packets of kambu and barley. This is what i could find in my super market. But still i have explore other grains too like samai, varagu. So stay tuned for more millet recipes. And to say about this idli, i was quite worried about the taste of the idly. But to my surprise it turned out quite good actually. It was little denser than normal rice idlies, you have to keep in mind that it is made my millets BTW. And for best taste enjoy this idly with tomato chutney and coconut chutney.
