Story behind this idea:
My mom used to make kind of vadiyalu with left over rice, she used to take left over rice, tomato, salt, zeera and chilli powder and made vadiyalu and left for sun dry. Once they are dried she used to fry in oil........I like those a lot, esp. when fried the tomato taste is super..............i thought now as there is no sun, let me bake and see...........came out super............if kids are there you can reduce the spice
Hope you like it

Curd Kodubale is a traditional dish. We can make many varities of Kodubale, here I am posting this recipe which is made of curds.... Its yummy.... :)
Ingredients:
1 ½ Cups Rice flour
1 ¾ cups Sour, plain curd/yoghurt
¼ cup Water
Salt to taste
2 tsp Oil
1 tsp Cumin seeds
1 tsp Red chilli powder
Method:
First lightly churn the curd and mix with the water. Now take a heavy bottom pan and add this mixture and heat it on a medium heat. Once it comes to a boil add salt, oil, cumin seeds and stir it.
Now bring to a simmering boil on a medium low heat and place a wooden spatuala in the pan and pour the rice flour in the center. Do not stir immediately, otherwise it will get lumpy.Lower heat and cook for 10 mins. Remove from heat and mix it hard, in one direction to bring the mixture together and the dough will be soft and slight sticky.
So grease the plate slightly with some oil and transfer the dough onto the greasy plate. When it is hot knead the dough and make smooth small ball. Here I have added some red chilli powder to make it savory for half of the dough. So I have done two type of Kodubale......Now roll into the shape of a rope and then bring the two ends and connect it. Can see in the pics..... :)
Take pan for frying heat oil on medium heat. when the oil is hot, drop it and deep fry it till it turns into golden brown. Take out once it is done on a paper towel.

Dear Friends,
This is the first time I'm participating in a recipe Contest. I hope you would like my entry.
Few days back I was looking out for recipes using Ragi flour (source of high quality nutrition) and found this recipe on Internet. I tried it as it is but they were a bit harder than our normal idlis and my baby refused to eat them. I wanted to try something with Ragi flour since it is considered to be very healthy for kids. When my baby doesn't like it, there is no point that I try this again. But I didn't want to give up. This time I tried it again but with a slight variation. I replaced half portion of the Ragi flour with Idli Rava (main ingredient for our contest) and it worked. I prepared this for our dinner yesterday. Since it turned out well, I wanted to share this recipe with you all.
Ingredients:
Idli Rava (By product of Rice) - 1 cup
Ragi flour - 1 cup
Minapappu/Urad daal - 1 cup
Salt
Oil
Preparation method:
1. Soak Idli Rava, Ragi flour and Minapappu separately in water. It's better to soak Minapappu at least for 4 hours. Idli Rava and Ragi flour can be soaked 30 mins before mixing but I prefer to soak them along with Minapappu (Idlis are very soft if you soak even Rava and Ragi flour at least for 4 hours before making the batter).
2. Grind Minapappu to a very smooth paste. Mix the soaked Rava and flour with the paste. Add salt and mix well.
3. Leave this batter overnight for fermentation.
4. Next day grease the idli moulds with oil and pour the batter. Steam it like our normal idlis.
5. Serve them hot with your favorite chutney or Sambar.
Serves: 3
Preparation time: 30mins (for greasing the Idli stand, pouring the batter and steaming )

Preparation time 10 to 15 minutes
Makes about 5 to 6 dosa’s (with the measure, glass I used in the first picture)
Ingredients
Rice Flour - 1 (any measure)
Water - 1.5 (as above measure, this is approximate as it depends on the type of rice flour too)
Bengal Gram - 1 cup
(Putnalu)
Chilli Powder - According to taste
Finely Chopped Onions - 2 medium sizes
Salt - According to taste
Oil - For frying (to make dosa’s)
Preparation
This is a very simple process to make dosa’s instantly in about 10 to 15 minutes. All you need is to be hungry ;).
Make fine powder of Bengal gram and add chilli powder and salt to the fine powder. Keep this powder aside.
Mix rice flour, some salt (acc to taste) and water to make fine batter without any lumps (if you know the consistency to make atlu it is the same).
Heat the pan (dosa pan) and add some oil to the pan (just a little so that dosa will not stick to the pan).
Make dosa pouring the batter on the pan evenly; sprinkle the Bengal gram powder as soon as you pour the batter, then sprinkle onions only on half of the dosa.
Leave the dosa on the pan till it comes out from the sides of the pan.
Fold the dosa into half (raise the half side without onions and fold it onto the side where sprinkled onions), leave for some time and turn it onto the other side and leave it for some time to let it fry.
Serve it on a plate with/without pickle (depends on how spicy the powder is).
Have it piping hot. Hmmmmm Yummy yummy dosas in no time to fill your hungry stomach (please see the pictures for step by step process)
Tips
If you are not sure about the consistency of the batter and it comes thick, add more water and if dosa comes out thin then add some rice flour to it.
When making dosa if you see little pores of it, it is the correct consistency (in pic 2).
You can store the Bengal gram powder for a long time.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
