These delicious steamed dumplings are made with any vegetables that maybe lurking in the corner of the fridge or freezer. In the past I have used bell pepper, golden corn and even broccoli in these savoury morsels. Using a vinegar and Eno fruit salt combination makes the Idlis fluffy and eliminates having to use dairy yogurt. These keep well and taste great after cooling down too!
