Just in few steps this delicious snack can be made and while preparing the first batch of fry and continuing with the rest the first batch will just disappear into thin air 😉.
When I have leftover idlis, I always prepare Idli upma , which is my favorite. So I didn't get or have the idea of frying it . But you know mostly strange ideas of recipes come from our kids. So once my elder daughter, Saadhna said that her friend used to bring Idli fry and it is so delicious. From that day onwards she kept on asking for it and finally I prepared it . Whenever the kids know that mother is preparing the dish they have asked for, you really got to see the love they show 😍. Its a true bliss
You can also make this recipe with fresh idlis. So lets see how it is prepared.
