Ingredients
- 10-15 Semolina Idli or rice idli, small size
- 2-3 clove Ginger Garlic Paste
- ½ cup Hung Yogurt
- 5-6 piece Cashews
- ½ cup Coriander
- Salt as per taste
- ½ tsp Chili Powder red
Instructions
Prepare the Marinade
- Grind together ginger-garlic paste, cashews, coriander leaves, and red chili powder into a smooth paste. Add the paste to the hung curd and vegetable oil. Mix well to create a uniform marinade.
Marinate the Idlis
- Add salt to the idlis and gently toss to coat. Add the marinated idlis to the curd mixture and stir to ensure they're evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10-15 minutes.
Assemble the Skewers
- Once marinated, thread the idlis onto skewers.
Air Fry the Idli Tikka
- Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Place the skewers in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren't overcrowded. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
Serve
- Serve the hot, crispy Idli Tikka immediately. Garnish with chopped capsicum and tomatoes. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Idli Tikka
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of garam masala or chaat masala to the marinade.
- If your idlis are large, cut them in half before marinating for better cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary to ensure even browning.
- Experiment with different vegetables for garnish – onions, cilantro, or even a drizzle of chutney would be delicious!
