ReplyDeletethe best combo ever. the idlis look so soft and fluffy.
ReplyDeleteLike everyone else here, as much as I love kothamalli chutney, I am very much drawn to those soft white idlis that goes with it.
ReplyDeleteTHey look beautiful, do you use a grinder as opposed to a blender to make the batter? Just curious.
