Heat Oil in a pan and add Curry Leaves and the Cumin Seeds. Saute them for a minute and then add both the Lentils Bengal Gram and Urad Dal. On a low heat, saute them until light brown in colour.
Now add Green Chillies followed by Maize Flour at last. Saute the flour until it is well roasted and smells good. The smell of Maize Flour after roasting is very divine.
In a wide bowl, add the beaten Curd, Salt, Onions and Carrots. Stir in the roasted Maize Flour mix along with the chopped Coriander Leaves. Add water little by little to form a thick batter. You might require less or more water depending upon the quality of the maize flour used.
Let it sit until the water gets heated up for steaming. After 15 minutes, add the eno fruit salt and mix with light hands. Grease the idli plates a little before filling the batter.
Steam them for 15 minutes. Serve them hot with any chutney of your choice. I did mine with Imli Pudina Chutney.
