Here is the recipe from last week that I posted there-(Just Copy and Pasting :))

High Fiber Idlies

1 cup urad daal
1.25 cups brown rice
1.25 cups wheat dalia
1/4 cup cooked rice

Soak, grind and ferment like usual idli batter. Steam and serve hot with sambar and chutney. I had them 'duboke" in sambar.. With some sev on top... Just the way my dad used to like :))

"Dalia" (Cracked Wheat) Patties/ Pattice

 The 'Dalia' kheer that I made last night...did not fare so well in front of the kids. They took a bite or two..that was all about it.
So,this morning... I was left with some leftover cooked dalia....two kids ready for breakfast...and free time due to the 'snow day' at work!

Remembering the delicious Dalia 'Khichadi' with ground peanuts and cumin that I had at a friends place, the cooked dalia got the same ingredients and transformed into patties.These pattice did much better with the kids...and made up a filling breakfast along with a yogurt dip!

Ingredients:
3/4 Cup pressure cooked 'fine cracked wheat'
1/4 cup mashed boiled potato
1/4 cup ground peanuts
1tbsp chopped cilantro
1tsp cumin
1/2tsp red chili powder/ chopped green chilies
salt
oil to fry

Method:
1) Mix together the cooked dalia, mashed potato, cumin, green chilies, salt, ground peanut etc.
2) Roll into pattice- circular/ oval or any other desired shape.
3) Shallow fry in  a non stick pan with little oil, till golden brown on each side
4) Serve hot along with yogurt or cilantro- mint chutney

Wheat Dalia Idlis!!!!!

Couple weeks ago..when I posted my "Brown Rice Idli" recipe on a facebook forum "Bon Appetit'...a fellow member ( Gayatri Tatke )....said she makes "Wheat Dalia Idlis" and they come out 'even softer than our regular idlis". Now..... you know me!! I had to try these ASAP!!!
Loved them!! The color is well...a little "Wheatish"...but you wouldn't miss the Rice in the Idlis!!

 Ingredients:
2 Cups Wheat Dalia (Cracked wheat-I had the coarse variety)
1 Cup Urad daal
salt

Method:
1) Soak 1 cup urad daal and 2 cups wheat dalia for 8 hrs separately.( I soaked it in the morning and ground it at night) Grind into fine paste and let it ferment overnight. I warm the oven on 'warm' for 5 mins and then keep the batter in the Oven and TURN IT OFF.
After fermentation add salt to the batter.
2) Spray the Idli stand/mold with non stick cooking spray
3) Steam for 20 mins
4) Serve hot along with Sambar/Coconut Chutney/ Spicy Powder Chutney

Spicy Powder Chutney:
 I bought the MTR "Spiced Chutney Powder" and mixed it with yogurt.( you can mix it in Oil too..but  I prefer yogurt)
