Instant Rava Idli (steamed in the Instant Pot)

Instant rava idli is one of our most favorite breakfast or brunch items and is prepared often over the weekends. Since it doesn't require any fermenting, it can be prepared in a jiffy. I have prepared this idli  today with the basic tadka or tempering. You can very well convert this into an elaborate one by adding shredded veggies like carrots and also cilantro/dhania.

Ripe mango gojju / Maavinahannina Gojju

"Gojju" is a preparation that is popularly prepared in Karnataka (southern Indian state). It is traditionally served with hot rice . Today, I will be sharing a recipe of  Ripe mango gojju or Maavina Hannina Gojju. It is prepared commonly in Udupi (south kanara region of Karnataka) .It's a simple recipe that can be prepared in no time. Ideally, this recipe works well with almost ripe and slightly sour mangoes. If the mangoes are not sour, you can bring the sour element by adding little dry mango powder or amchur. This sweet, tangy and slightly spicy gojju tastes well with rice as well as chapatti.
