How To Make Viral Lava Idli At Home: Buy These 5 Ingredients

1. Urad Dal

Urad dal is the key ingredient in making idli. It aids in the fermentation process of the batter and gives the idli a soft and smooth texture. Opt for whole urad dal for the best results. Additionally, stock your pantry with toor dal to prepare the sambar.

2. Rice

Alongside urad dal, you'll need rice to prepare the idli batter. It provides structure to the idli, preventing it from falling apart. Use idli rice or parboiled rice to ensure your idli turns out perfectly. Also, ensure thorough washing of the rice before use.

3. Vegetables

The sambar consists of a variety of vegetables. Add veggies such as carrots, pumpkins, drumsticks, beans, etc. However, keep their length short to allow the sambar to ooze out of the idlis. Using larger-sized veggies won't recreate the desired lava effect.

4. Spices

For these viral idlis to turn out well, your sambar should burst with flavour. To achieve this, add a mix of different masalas, including haldi, coriander seeds, saunf, jeera, and red chilli powder. Consider adding curry leaves and hing tempering to enhance the taste.

5. Golgappa

Golgappa is the star ingredient of this unique creation. Add a generous amount of sambar to the golgappa and place it between the idli batter in the mould. Top it with more batter and then steam until done. Cut it from the centre, and the sambar will ooze out, recreating the melting lava effect.
