You can make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/vegetable-quinoa-pulao\/\">Pulao<\/a>, dosa, salad, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/instant-pot-quinoa-dal-khichdi\/\">khichdi<\/a>, and so many other things. It happens to be one of my family&rsquo;s favorite ingredients too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/ven-pongal-khara-pongal\/\">Ven Pongal<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/instant-pot-kerala-vegetable-stew\/\">Kerala stew<\/a>, Idli sambar is one of my favorite comfort food. I can have them any time of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While regular idli made with rice and dal is my most favorite dish, I also love to make Idli with sooji, lentils, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/oats-idli\/\">oats<\/a>, and Quinoa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So today, I am sharing a idli recipe made with quinoa with you all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been making this Quinoa Idli for quite some time. Actually, this recipe is inspired by my most tried and tested <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/quinoa-oats-and-lentil-dosa\/\">Quinoa Dosa<\/a> recipe by readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my quinoa dosa, I used a combination of different lentils, oats, quinoa, and NO rice. And that recipe doesn&rsquo;t require fermentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this recipe requires fermentation for a soft and spongy texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the Quinoa Idli recipe, I replace about a \u00be ratio of rice with quinoa making the idlis more nutritious and wholesome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can try this as an alternate for the usual white idlis at least once in a while. It tastes really great with sambar or tomato rasam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"fermented idli batter\" class=\"wp-image-14656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Quinoa-Idli-3.jpg\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-you-should-try-this-quinoa-idli-recipe\">Why you should try this Quinoa Idli recipe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Kids friendly and perfect for lunch-box<\/li><li>wholesome and protein-packed than regular idlis<\/li><li>Perfect and filling for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.<\/li><li>Naturally vegan and gluten-free.<\/li><li>Requires only 4 ingredients and very easy to make<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients-required\">Ingredients required<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Quinoa<\/strong> &ndash; I have used white quinoa.

It really helps in fermentation.<\/li><li>Make sure the batter is not too thick. A thick batter will not ferment. The batter should be a nice and flowing consistency. Follow the amount of water mentioned in the recipe.<\/li><li>Temperature to ferment the batter.<\/li><li>For good fermentation, the temperature should be warm. Cold climates do not favor the fermentation process. Keep your idli batter in a warm place.<\/li><li>In winter or if you live in cold countries, turn on the oven light or use the Instant Pot yogurt function.<\/li><li>I love using Instant Pots yogurt setting to fermenting the batter. It gives the same result in the same amount of time.<\/li><li>But if you don&rsquo;t have an instant pot, you can turn to use the oven too.

All those tips also apply here. So I would suggest you read that post as well. It would help you a lot.<\/li>\n<li>Use Idli rice or parboiled rice for best results.<\/li>\n<li>While grinding the ingredients, make sure you do it in batches.<\/li>\n<li>Add just a little water at a time while grinding so that batter does not become very thin.<\/li>\n<li>Always add cold water while grinding the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure you mix the batter with your clean hands after grinding it. It really helps in fermentation.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure the batter is not too thick. A thick batter will not ferment. The batter should be a nice and flowing consistency. Follow the amount of water mentioned in the recipe.<\/li>\n<li>Temperature to ferment the batter.<\/li>\n<li>For good fermentation, the temperature should be warm. Cold climates do not favor the fermentation process. Keep your idli batter in a warm place.<\/li>\n<li>In winter or if you live in cold countries, turn on the oven light or use the Instant Pot yogurt function.<\/li>\n<li>I love using Instant Pots yogurt setting to fermenting the batter. It gives the same result in the same amount of time.<\/li>\n<li>But if you don&rsquo;t have an instant pot, you can turn to use the oven too. Turn on the oven light and place the batter for 8 hours (10 hours in winter).<\/li>\n<li>The amount of time the batter takes to ferment will depend on the weather\/climate of the place you live.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"content_4_btf_wrapper\" class=\"adunitwrapper content_btf_wrapper mv-size-300x250 mv-dynamic-size\" data-wrapper=\"content_4_btf\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can we store this batter?<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1611096350097\" class=\"schema-faq-section\">\n<span class=\"schema-faq-answer\" style=\"display: block;\">The batter can be made in a big quantity and can be refrigerated for 3 to 4 days and can be freeze for up to 3 months in an air-tight container.
