Sabudana / Sago / Sabbakki Idli

Sabudana idli or sabakki idli is a popular and healthy breakfast that you can make with very less planning. 

I tasted this idli at my aunt's home when was in Bangalore. It was so tasty and and spongy . When eaten piping hot with some tomato chutney this is the best 🙂 

 To make sabudana/sago/Sabbakki idli recipe no grinding is required. We can easily make this idli we need idli rava and tapioca pearls and yogurt.

Sago are a source of pure carbohydrate with very little protein, Vitamin C, calcium and minerals. Sago is a common ingredient used in Indian recipes

In this idli Sabudana pearls are clearly visible and we get to feel while chewing. My daughter Prapti loved the transparent pearls in the Idli. Everyone at home liked this idli. This recipe is handy in many situations.
