- Cooking time: 45 minutes
- Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- Rice rawa: 1 cup
- Fresh coconut: 1 cup grated
- Jaggery: ½ cup
- Cardamom: 1 tsp
- Ghee: 1 tsp
- Salt: to taste
- Ripe Jackfruit: 1 cup
Procedure:
- To make the jackfruit paste, take a mixing jar and add to it coconut, jaggery, cardamom powder and jackfruit pieces. Use little water to make a fine paste.
- Transfer the paste to a mixing bowl. Add the rice rawa to it, along with a pinch of salt. Mix the components well. Let the rice batter sit for about 20-25 minutes to allow the rawa to soak up the jackfruit paste well.
- The consistency of this better is supposed to be slightly thicker than the regular idli batter. As the final product will also be denser than regular idlis.
- Grease the idli moulds with ghee, and keep the idli steamer to boil. Add a scoop of the jackfruit batter in it. Steam the idlis for about 15 minutes or so. Prick a toothpick into one of the idlis to check if it is cooked. If the toothpick comes out clean, it means the idlis are cooked.
- Remove the idlis and serve these sweet idlis with a serving of coconut chutney and enjoy hot.
