Thinai Idiyappam / Millet Idiyappam / Foxtail Millet String Hoppers / திணை இடியாப்பம்

When I received a packet of foxtail millet flour / Thinai mavu from my mom; I planned to try something healthy ,easy and especially tasty.  I found this recipe from Indian kitchen; made Thinai Idiyappam with slight changes in Ingredients according my preference. It came out very tasty and soft.

I have  added rice flour along with thinai flour to give softness to this dish.  
With the left over thinai idiyappam I made tomato egg sevai for dinner and my kids just love it. 

Try to include millets in your daily routine for a healthy living.

Idiyappam / String Hoppers

Idiyappam / String hoppers is a popular & traditional breakfast item of South India especially in state of Tamilnadu and Kerala. It is a healthy and easily digestible food as it is steam cooked; perfect to have for all ages.

You can check below for different spicy accompaniments that suits well with Idiyappam; However I prefer to have with sweetened coconut milk!
