Green Gram Idli recipe

I love to try different types of idli esp when my sons were not home for a meal. If they around I will make dosa with the same batter. I wanted to try no rice healthy idli. I have seen moong dal idli in many blogs I wanted to try with whole green gram to enhance its nutritional value. I was not sure about how it will turn out. So I made some backup plan (just in case) but I didn’t have to go back to my just in case plan as idli turn out to be very good
