Broken Wheat Idly/Gothumai Rava Idly



Entering the first week of 53rd edition of Blogging Marathon and this week theme is going to be Guilt free indulgence.
As these days everybody is changing their food habits to lead a healthy life.One such thing is substituting the whole grains and millets in traditional recipes.
Idly is a common healthy breakfast made with rice and lentil in almost every South Indian house hold.The regular rice idly needs grinding as well as fermentation and the amount of carbohydrate is considerably more due to the amount of rice used.People who wants reduce their carbohydrate intake can substitute with whole grains and millets.
Coming to the recipe,I used the broken wheat to make this idly,you can also add 1/4 cup of oats along with broken wheat.This is an instant version and doesn't need fermentation.I  paired up the idly with two varieties of chutney and its a filling and balanced meal if its served along with a bowl of sambar.With no further delay lets move on to the recipe....................................
