Millet Idli Rava is a nutritious, gluten-free alternative to traditional rice semolina Made from coarsely ground ancient grains like Foxtail, Little, Ragi (Finger Millet), or Bajra (Pearl Millet), it retains the outer bran. This delivers soft, fluffy idlis packed with higher dietary fiber and iron than standard rava.
