Indi-fusion cuisine is what I would like to call this dish. Taking the best from Chinese flavours and combining it with the wholesomeness of Indian food…gets you a recipe called “Schezwan Idli” ! Great as an evening snack or even as brunch. It’s filling, tasty and healthy as well. Children especially will love this Chinese version of the humble South Indian Idli.
