2. Mix ragi slurry (important for lump-free mudde)

4. Stir and cook

5. Shape the mudde

  • Wet your palms with cold water or apply a drop of ghee.
  • Roll the hot ragi mixture into smooth balls.

Paneer idli is a protein-rich, kid-friendly twist on the classic South Indian idli. You can make it two ways:

  1. Paneer mixed into the batter, or
  2. Paneer stuffing inside the idli.

Below is the easiest mixed-batter version, plus an optional stuffing version.

⭐ Method

1. Prepare the batter

  • Take fermented idli batter in a bowl.

  • Heat oil, splutter mustard seeds, add urad dal and onions; sauté lightly.
  • Let it cool slightly and fold it into the batter.

3. Steam the idlis

  • Grease the idli plates.
  • Pour batter up to ¾ full.
  • Steam for 10–12 minutes on medium heat.
  • Let them rest for 2 minutes before removing.

4. Serve

Serve hot with:

  • Coconut chutney
  • Tomato chutney
  • Sambar
  • Or drizzle ghee on top!

🍽 Alternative: Paneer Stuffed Idlis (Quick Version)

Stuffing:

  • ½ cup crumbled paneer
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • ¼ tsp red chilli powder
  • ¼ tsp turmeric

  • Coriander

Steps:
