Idli Manchurian (with fried egg)

Try these chinese inspired idli dish with some leftover idlis for a quick snack or even dinner. Its yum. This is a perfect dish for someone who doesn't like idli. Also this is an easy dish for beginners to try.



Ingredients:- ( serves 1 individual)


  1. Idli diced - 2 no:
  2. Onion/Shallots- 1 small (if shallots use 4/5 large ones)
  3. Ginger- 1 tsp
  4. Garlic- 2 tsps
  5. Chilly powder/pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
  6. Soya sauce- 1 tbsp
  7. Tomato Sauce- 2 tbsp
  8. Fresh Coriander leaves- a little
  9. Salt- to taste
  10. Water- 2/3 tbsp
  11. Oil- 2 tbsp

Method:-

  1. In a wok pour oil and saute the ginger, garlic and onions until slightly golden brown. 
  2. Add the soya sauce, tomato ketchup and chilly powder. You may also use chilly sauce if u have or even green chillies and water. Mix well
  3. Now add the diced idli and combine well. Make sure you have got all the pieces covered in the sauce.
  4. Add fresh coriander and adjust salt. Serve hot
  5. I had a fried egg with it as I love the runny yolk with it.
*Please note that soya sauce and ketchup will be salty, so add salt accordingly.
* You may use any oil. Though peanut oil is more chinese, i used coconut oil. Don't worry the coconut flavor does not reflect in the final dish.
* You may add capsicum/corn or even use spring onions instead of regular onions.
