Tempered ghee podi idli recipe, Nei podi idli recipe

Tempered ghee podi idli recipe leftover idlis cut, smeared in ghee, tempered with a basic tadka with idli podi sprinkled.

I usually make a simple version in dosa tawa itself..heat oil, add idli podi along with cut idli cubes toast and serve hot.But this is the version amma makes and I love it too…this is inbetween idli upma and idli podi toast.

I have always wondered how our elders turn even the leftovers to such tasty snack and avoid food wastage.So I have also stuck to this rule of no food wastage  as far as I can.

So sometimes I intentionally make more idlis just to make this as I love it so much.
