SCHEZWAN IDLY FRY


Left over idli typically become upma next day or end up in the trash. An idea came to me that why not use schezwan sauce to spice things up a bit and create schezwan Idly fry. I love schezwan fried rice and noodles, which triggered this idea :-) Ofcourse you can make this dish with fresh idlies too :-)  I kept on postponing this recipe and finally here it is...It was colourful, awesome and tastes yummy (as certified by my husband) :-)  Enjoy different type of idly fry and let me know your feedback :-)
