Hi All,

KANCHIPURAM IDLI ! I made this idli few days before ,Morning breakfast was always a hurry in my home so idli is easy for everyone to eat and run 😅 , Moreover recently I read in a article that in some research they have proved that Idli is the most healthiest breakfast , So I make idlis regularly. But this time I want to make something different from my regular idlis and I made Thatte Idli and Kanchipuram idli.Both tasted amazing and everyone loved it.

Traditional Kanchipuram idli they make in Bamboo stick but here it is not possible so I made in Banana leaf .Idlis that boiled in banana leaf tasted great and also rich in fibers ,If you don't get banana leaf then you can make in normal idli steaming method too.
