them out of the pan and grind them to a fine powder and add it to
the idli batter.
Then
add cashew pieces, turmeric powder, asafoetida, curry leaves, ginger
and green chillies and fry for a few seconds.
Mix it
also with the batter.
Add the
coriander leaves just before steaming the idlies.
Now
place some raisins on the greased idli moulds and then pour the batter to these molds.

it in the idli steamer for 10 minutes.
