Samba ravai idli/Broken wheat idli

Samba Ravai idli is a modified verison of our regular rava idli. The broken wheat is very good for our health, especially for diabetic patients. We can make a lot of recipes with broken wheat – upma, kozhukkattai, idli. I made this recipe few months ago and it came out very well.
