They are actually steamed rice cakes, a batter is made by grinding rice and lentil, allowed to ferment and the batter is poured onto the idli moulds and steam cooked. Soft and fluffy Idlis will be ready in a matter of minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Idlis are made on a regular basis at most South Indian houses and are served with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/lentil-and-mixed-veggie-curry-or-sambar-south-indian-curry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sambar <\/a>or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/easy-tomato-chutney-south-indian-tomato-chutney\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chutney<\/a>\u00a0(either tomato or coconut chutney). However, in my family idlis are also served with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/fish-in-roasted-coconut-gravy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fish curry <\/a>or sometimes even with\u00a0chicken curry. Some people find this to be a weird combination. I truly love idlis along with fish curry, it tastes delicious.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t make idlis that often, very rarely I make them and so I&#8217;ll\u00a0be seen enjoying them to the fullest. Yesterday, I&#8217;d made idli batter and kept the batter in the oven to ferment. Took the batter out of the oven at noon and made idlis for lunch. I served them with fish curry. My man who is not a fan of fish curry found this combination quite odd. Well, I enjoyed it. I&#8217;d some leftover idlis and wanted to finish them. I had a crystal clear idea about what to make with the leftover idlis, Idli 65 it is.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, chicken or cauliflower are used for making this dish known as chicken 65 or Gobi 65 respectively. Yes, Idlis can also be turned into Idli 65, this is a fancy way of serving idli. I cannot explain how much my Man and I loved this dish. My Man couldn&#8217;t believe that it was Idli and he gobbled up with so much greed.<\/p>\n<p>Do try this, this is going to be a huge hit among kids and adults. This can be served as an appetizer or a perfect lunch for kids ( make it less spicy).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/how-to-make-idli-and-idli-stir-fry-or-idli-masala\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here is the recipe for making Idli,\u00a0click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19470 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/idli-65.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/idli-65.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/idli-65-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/idli-65-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparation Pictures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Fried Idlis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19471\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/fried-idli.jpg\" alt=\"fried idli\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/fried-idli.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/fried-idli-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/fried-idli-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stir frying onion and green pepper<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19473\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-651.jpg\" alt=\"making-idli 65\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-651.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-651-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-651-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Making Idli 65<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19472\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-65.jpg\" alt=\"making idli 65\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-65.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-65-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/making-idli-65-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Idli-65-recipe.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Idli 65 Recipe &#8211;
