METHOD
divide the idli batter into 4 parts

in 3rd part add pumpkin puree, season it to taste
in the 4th part add carrot puree, season it to taste

Mix each batter well, pour in greased idli plates, steam as usual for 10-12 minutes.

ps- This is one way to make the idlis attractive and make the kids eat the veges which they normally avoid.

NOTE- if you want a bit spicy, in spinach puree, you can add some green chilies and grind it together.
In beet and carrot you may grind some red chilies as per taste
 To make it still healthier, you may add some corn in spinach, peas in pumpkin, add some blanched cauliflower florets in beet, blanched broccoli florets in carrot, to make it more colourful and healthy ! These idlis will be very healthy, as it has vitamins, minerals and fibre which are essential to us.
