Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Combine Dry Ingredients and Vegetables

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, chopped cabbage, soaked moong dal, grated sweet potato, chopped green chillies, grated ginger, and cumin seeds.

2. 2.Add Salt and Water

   Add salt to taste and 1/2 cup of water to the mixture.

3. 3.Mix the Batter

   Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until a thick, uniform batter consistency is achieved. Ensure all components are well incorporated.

4. 4.Prepare Idli Portions

   Divide the prepared batter into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a small ball.

5. 5.Grease Idli Plates

   Lightly grease the idli plates with oil to prevent sticking.

6. 6.Shape and Place Idlis

   Place each batter ball onto the greased idli plates. Gently flatten them and make a small hole in the center of each to form a donut or vada-like shape.

7. 7.Steam the Idlis

   Carefully place the filled idli plates into an Instant Pot or a traditional steamer. Set the Instant Pot to 'Steam Mode' with the vent open and steam for 12 minutes.

8. 8.Serve

   Once steaming is complete, carefully remove the idlis from the plates using a spoon or knife. Serve the warm idlis with mango pickle or raw mango coconut chutney.
