• Pour oil in a kadai and when heated, put in the mustard and allow to splutter.
• Then put in the urad dal and asafoetida, then put in the chopped green chillies and thin slices of ginger.
• When it starts to become a light brown, now add the rava and the semia, and fry to a light brown colour.
• Now bring it down from the stove, add salt and mix thoroughly.
• Churn the curds to a thick consistency and then pour it into the fried mass.
• Immediately put it into the idly stand and steam for exactly 5 mins.
