Aa soon as you put turmeric and chilli powder, gently put the chopped idli into it.Sprinkle some salt and mix using a spatula.Let the edges of idli pieces be golden.And now the quick fried idli is ready.Make sure to not use accesssive salt as the idli itself is steamed with salt in the batter.Just sprinkling some gives the correct taste.
