- ½ Lemon
- 2 tablespoon Ghee
- 1 tablespoon Oil sesame oil
- 2 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Asafoetida

Instructions
- Very easy, just make mini idlies and keep it in hot pack. Just before serving, you can make it ready.
- First heat a tblsp of ghee in a non-stick kadai and in low flame, add the idli podi, give it a quick stir.
- Add 12 mini idlies and toss well in medium flame for a minute.
- Transfer to a serving bowl.Wipe the kadai and add one more tblsp of ghee.
- In low flame (ghee should be hot but) add the curry leaves powder and toss well for a minute same as idli podi and transfer this too a serving bowl.
- Lastly wipe the kadai again (or wash if needed) and add oil, mustard and a pinch of asafoetida and turmeric.
- Squeeze in the lemon and add salt. Make sure oil is more and add the idlies, toss it well.
- Switch off the flame and keep aside.
- Now take tooth picks and insert the idlies, either same flavor as I have did or you can even mix it and insert. Arrange in a plate and serve it!
Notes
- The original recipe said to mix in the lemon, turmeric with the batter, but I did it this way.
- You can replace ghee with sesame oil too.
