Khotto or Kotte kadubu is nothing but idli batter steamed in a mini basket or cups made out of jackfruit leaves. This is a very popular and regular weekend breakfast in almost all Mangalorean Konkani homes. Usually, it is prepared with rice and urad dal, but this is prepared with Rava and dal. This is prepared particularly during upvas days. You can also steam idli with the same batter.

Ingredients
1 cup urad dal
1 cup semolina/ fine rava
Salt to taste
