What Is Idli?

Idli is a type of rice cake that is famous in the Southern part of India. The cakes are cooked by steaming the idli batter in an idli pot. The idli batter is prepared from rice and fermented lentils.

How Did The Idli Originate?

Today, idli is widely considered a delicious speciality of southern India. Idli or kedli is thought to have arrived in India sometime between 800 and 1200 CE. It's also worth noting that the term "idli" has multiple possible meanings. Idli may have been derived from the word Iddalige, which appears in the Vaddaradhane, a Kannada work written by Sivakotyacharya in the year 920 AD.

It is widely accepted among historians that Sambar was created by Tamil monarchs in the mid-1700s. The eldest son of the Maratha monarch Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, is claimed to have invented sambar while attempting to make dal curry when his chef was away. By incorporating tamarind into the dal, he invented sambar.
