This is commonly eaten food item in the Southern India. It is made by steaming a batter of fermented black lentils and rice. It is usually served with Sambar (a vegetable stew). It is not only light but, tasty too. Its popularity can be accounted from the fact that even the World Health Organization has declared it as one of the most nutritious and safe food to have outside home. Idlis and Sambar is an ideal dish for breakfast.
