🥗Healthier: yogurt dip

Yogurt dip is lower in calories and easy to make.

Rinse 1/4 cup poha 2-3 times and set aside with a little water to soak.

Soak 1 cup rice overnight or in hot water for 1 hour.

In a mixing jar, combine soaked rice, 1/2 coconut, and soaked poha.

Add 1 tablespoon water and blend until the batter is thick but not too runny.

Whisk the batter in one direction for 1-2 minutes and let it ferment overnight.

After fermentation, check the batter consistency and add water if too thick.

Grease 4 small bowls with oil and pour equal portions of the batter into each bowl.

Steam the bowls for 10 minutes on medium to high flame.

For the chutney, blend 2 medium tomatoes, 3 garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon crushed red chili, 1/2 teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder, and salt to taste until smooth.

In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil, add 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds, 1/4 teaspoon fenugreek seeds, curry leaves, and 4-5 dried red chilies until fragrant.

Add the blended tomato mixture and cook until the water evaporates and oil separates from the chutney.

Check if the steamed batter is done by inserting a knife; if it comes out clean, it's ready.

Let it cool slightly, then remove from the bowls and cut into pieces.
