Mini Idli is a smaller version of the normal idlis. Kids always prefer mini idlis than the normal ones, as it is easy to eat and looks interesting . With Mini idlis, we can either make sambar idlis or curd idlis.

You can cook these idlis in any one of these
Pressure cooker
Idli cooker
Electric rice cooker.
If you are cooking in pressure cooker, do not put weight in valve.
If you are using electric rice cooker, pour lesser water as it might come over to the lower plate and idlis will become soggy.
Ingredients:

Method:
1) Pour enough water in idli cooker and heat it.
