About Plain idli
Plain Idli is a traditional South Indian dish made from a simple, fermented batter of rice and split black gram (urad dal). This steamed delicacy is a staple of Indian cuisine and is known for its light, fluffy texture and subtle flavor. Idlis are naturally low in fat, rich in complex carbohydrates, and provide protein from the lentils, making them a wholesome meal or snack. The fermentation process enhances the batter’s nutritional profile by promoting gut-friendly probiotics and increasing nutrient bioavailability. Idlis are gluten-free, easy to digest, and often paired with chutneys and sambar for added vitamins and minerals. However, moderation is key, as combining them with rich sides or excessive oil may affect their calorie content. Plain Idli is a healthy, balanced option for individuals seeking a light, nutritious, and satisfying dish rooted in Indian culinary tradition.
