Idli are always healthy as we steam cook the idli and there is no oil involved in making them. For Traditional idli, we need to add rice. Diabetics person and diet followers always try to skip rice and use broken wheat as an alternative. Also we can make this Idli instantly. We can do variety of recipes with broken wheat which we traditionally do with rice like Broken Wheat Adai, Broken Wheat upma kozhukattai and many more dishes. Broken Wheat Idli | Samba Godhumai Rava Idli | Dalia Idli is one of the very healthy and yummy dish.

Why Broken Wheat is Healthy?

Broken Wheat is made by grinding whole raw wheat coarsely. There is no refining of wheat. This broken wheat is also referred as Dalia, Cracked Wheat and Couscous. 1 Cup of broken wheat has only fewer calories and carbohydrates than White or brown rice. Because of its rich content of fiber, Broken wheat is substituted for rice especially for diabetic people and also recommended for diet substitution.

How to make Broken Wheat Idli?

Making Broken Wheat Idli is similar to the making of  Sooji(Rava) Idli. We need to first dry roast broken wheat nicely in low flame without burning and mixed with tempering, grated carrot, chopped coriander leaves along with salt. Then curd and water are added to mix the dry ingredients to make a batter. Let the batter rest for 10 mins for the wheat to soften and absorb the sourness of curd. Then add more water or buttermilk to adjust the consistency. Finally adding Eno fruit salt, just before steaming the idli. Eno salt help to aerate the batter and makes the Idli puff up while steaming in turn making the idli soft.

How to Serve Samba Godhuma Rava Idli?

Serve the delicious, instant Samba Godhuma Rava idli with Tomato Chutney, Kara Chutney, or any Chutney of your choice. Even a simple Idli Podi is a very good combination for this Broken Wheat Idli.

Tips to make Broken Wheat Idli

  1. Roasting of Rava is very important as it helps to build very good flavor. Do not skip this step. Dry roast the wheat in a low to medium flame till you get a nice aroma.
  2. Use of Sour curd is recommended. If you don’t have a sour curd, you can add little quantity of lemon juice in addition to the curd
  3. Add shredded vegetable of your choice and liking of your family.
  4. As i mentioned earlier, additional of Eno Fruit Salt helps to make fluffy idli.

I would love to try out this recipe as it seems quick and healthy. Can we mix the batter and let it rest for a couple of hours instead of using baking salt.
