Remember when you were a kid, you always knew that going back home to mom’s cooking will cheer you up no matter how bad your day was at school? This is because it’s more than just about the taste, when your mother cooks. It’s the love and care she puts into her cooking, and the sheer freshness of the meal itself that comforts you. Our foods are very much the same. We’ve poured our love into them by using only natural ingredients and keeping it preservative-free all the way. With our new proposition #MadeWithLove, we look to redefine the language of love, through food.

Spicy Tava Idli - Idli Fry
Below is the easy spicy idli fry recipe to help you make spicy tava idlis in minutes. This quick recipe requires the ingredients that are already present in your kitchen, and one does not need anything rare or over the top for it. Fried idlis taste good when served hot, and our idli fry recipe uses butter instead of oil. The generous amount of butter enhances the flavor of the spicy idli fry recipe and adds to the lip-smacking taste. However, if butter is not your ideal choice of cooking, then feel free to use clarified butter (ghee) or oil of your choice. As this is a spicy recipe, the red chili powder is added accordingly, but one can surely reduce or increase the amount of the same in your recipe, depending on your spice tolerance level. Idli fry recipes are quick to make and easy to serve.
