Thank you for visiting my site and taking time to post your comment.
Dear Ms Kamala,
Good day! i am new to this blog. I wish to try your idli recipe but I do not know what is parboiled rice. Can you please explain or do you have other alternative other than the parboiled rice.
Parboiled rice is called in Tamil as "Puzhungal Arisi". This rice is also sold as "Idli Rice" in stores. I am not sure where you live. If you are in US, you will get this rice in Indian Stores.
looks cool...the picture looks so inviting..in US idli rice will be available in indian stores or i have great resource where you can find all the indian ingredients. www.myethnicworld.com as i am a regular client of this site.
