- Heat butter on a tawa and sauté the onion, green chilies, curry leaves, garlic and a pinch of salt till light brown.
- Now add the idli podi (I used curry leaves podi) and mix well. Place the idlis over it and then flip it over so that the idlis are well coated with the masala.
- Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and enjoy as a tea time snack, for a weekend breakfast with coconut chutney or pack for a lunch box meal / picnic meal.
Tawa Idli Fry #wm2 - Tawa idli is a popular Indian street food, found especially in Hyderabad and Mumbai. So dish out this amazing dish with some leftover or fresh idlis. It is typically cooked on a tawa, hence the name. Basic ingredients like butter, onion, green chilies and curry leaves are needed. However, the star ingredients are the idli podi and the butter that adds a distinct flavour to this dish and takes it to the next level
