Keto Rawa Idli is a low-carb twist on the traditional South Indian steamed rice cakes, made with almond flour and coconut flour for a delightful, fluffy texture. They are infused with spices and served with coconut chutney, making them a perfect keto snack or breakfast option.

Ingredients

• Almond flour - 1 cup
• Coconut flour - 2 tablespoons
• Greek yogurt - 1/2 cup
• Baking powder - 1 teaspoon
• Turmeric powder - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, turmeric powder, and salt.

3. Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture until a thick batter forms.
4. Add chopped green chili, grated ginger, mustard seeds, and curry leaves into the batter, mixing well.
