Idly and dosa are the most popular breakfast from South India. I wanted to try different kind off idlies and I have posted Oats idly couple of months back. Idly tikka is my different version and I got so many response from my friends and readers. Its long time plan that I wish to make corn idly and a month back I totally forgot and I made corn kichadi :-) That was delicious and we liked a lot.
Cornmeal contains lot of nutrients and its loaded with many health benefits. It's an excellent source of vitamin B1 & B5. It is gluten-free and beneficial for managing diabetes. This is an instant idly like we do for rava idly which require no preparation :-) Last week I bought this broken corn and this time without forget I made Corn idly :-)
