Hi,

I would like to know where do you get Idly Rava... for making Idlies(South Indian dish).I guess most of them know about it. I did not find it in the Inidan store in Stuttgart.
Is there any other alternative for it???

Iam tired of using the instant idly mixes.

Please suggest.

hi hermoine,
well you are also facing the same problem which i faced 2 years back then i found an alternative to idly rava as we dont get it in germany upto my knowldge so one option is u can use upma rava( griese which u find in lidl) or else the second option is u have a special type of rice(upudu biyam which u get in srilankan shop)ask them rice for idly they wud give you.so enjoy hot hot idlies and by the way...if u are a female,wud like to extend a hand of freindship mail me at panna underscore pavani at the rate of yahoo dot com.....
bye then
