Rava Idli is a Bengaluru original, famously invented by MTR during World War II when rice was in short supply. Instead of fermented rice batter, it uses steamed semolina mixed with yogurt, curry leaves, and cashews. The result is a denser, more savory, and incredibly aromatic idli that has become a staple. It is traditionally served with a small bowl of melted ghee to pour over the top. The richness of the clarified butter is essential to balancing the texture of the semolina.
