Idli is a
traditional breakfast in south Indian households. Idli is savory cake of South India that is very popular throughout India. The cakes are usually two to
three inches in diameter and are made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented black lentils (de-husked) and rice. The fermentation process breaks
down the starches so that they are more readily metabolized by the body.
