    Ever since childhood days rava Idli is one of my favorite. Usually I buy MTR Rava idli mix for quick instant version. Once my friend thought me a way to make Rava idli in home with eno salt. I don’t but eno often so I couldn’t try it for a longtime. One day I was reading online that baking soda can be replaced with eno for recipes and tried Rava idli with baking soda and loved the result. Idli was so yum. I started prepared it often in home.

    One day I felt like having Rava Idli and when I was about to start, I realized I didn't have enough Rava at home. Godhumai Rava was in my sight. Though I have tried few recipe with cracked wheat, this Godhumai Rava idli is something which I did not even think about.

    Followed my Rava Idli procedure, except that I used cracked wheat instead of rava. I was actually amazed by its texture and taste. Hubby and I liked this Idli more this Godhumai Rava idli. It was spongy and tasty, and above all healthy:) Hence from that day Godhumai Rava idli often happened in our kitchen

      My wife loves yoghurt, so she might like this. And, another thing I have never even heard of, rava. How is this different from wheat, or is it the same thing? I understand it is equivalent to semolina. Thanks for your insights!
