How to make the perfect healthy idli bombs at home

Forget boring white idlis and instead make colourful idlis with spinach, beetroot, butterpea flowers and turmeric. To make this delicious idlis you need to extract the colour from the ingredients.

Next, take 5 bowls and add your idli mixture. Add a different colour to each bowl and mix well. Finally, pour the idli batter in a container, steam it and enjoy it hot with some ghee and podi!

This unique and visually appealing dish will surely be the star of the evening.

Why idli is the healthiest choice

Idlis are made from a combination of rice and black lentils (urad dal), which are naturally rich in carbohydrates, protein, and dietary fibre. They are also steamed rather than fried, making them low in fat content. They are also easy to digest and great for those with stomach issues.

Idlis can be customized according to individual preferences by adding ingredients such as vegetables, herbs, or spices to the batter, enhancing their flavour and nutritional profile.
