Idlis are our family favorites. A day brightens up for us with a plate of Idli and Chutney for the breakfast. A once in a while American breakfast is fine, but the very next day the south Indian taste buds look in for Idlis. There is a variety of Idlis that I make including the Rava Idly, Kanchipuram Idli, etc. This Thayir Idli is one such that is foolproof and never fails to ferment what so ever the weather may be. Also, this thayir Idli/ Curd Idli has some spices, making it suitable for the winter mornings. A plate of Thayir Idli with some Podi and simple coconut chutney and a hot cup of coffee or tea will brighten up your day. Do try this out and leave your comments.
