Kadubu (Idlis) and Hinga (Asafotida) chutney!

These Idli moulds are made out of thick leaves  called ‘Kedige’ in Kannada. The Tamil name is ‘Thazambu’ leaf and it is called  ‘Screwpine’ in English. The leaves  gives the beautiful aroma to the idlis. When we use these moulds to make the idli, it is called Kadubu in Kannada and  Moodo in Konkani.

Ingredients  for the Idli batter:

2 cup urad dal
4 cups idli rava
Salt  to taste.

Soak the urad dal for 4 to 5 hrs in water. Grind it into a smooth batter using sufficient water. Soak the idli rava in hot water for 30 minutes, then drain the water out and mix the rava in the urad dal batter, add salt and keep it overnight for the fermentation. Next morning stir the batter and pour the batter in the   mould or  idli  katori, and steam in the vessel  for 20-25 minutes. [rml_read_more]

MUNNI TRIVEDI

My condition was progressively deteriorating over the past 2 years. I’d been good at taking my medicine and exercising so knew I should have felt better. My arthritis and scleroderma were really affecting my quality of life. Increasing pain and fatigue were wearing me down.

Dr. Jenny and Ajoy came well-recommended so I got in touch. I completed a short questionnaire before my consultation. Covid meant it was all done over VC. They put me at ease, and it was like we were in the same room. They asked all the right medical and lifestyle questions without judgement. They devised a plan which was holistic, realistic and easy to follow. Their gentle and knowledgeable coaching kept me on track.

The resulting decrease in swelling and pain has given me a new lease of life in a few weeks. I feel so much better and look so much happier. I felt they were genuinely interested in my well-being. Happy to highly recommend them.
