Preparation:
1.Heat the tawa and dry roast rava until its nice aroma strikes the kitchen.Then take out the rava into another bowl.
2.Now , Heat oil and add mustard seeds.
3.When they start popping,, green chillies, channa dal , add ginger paste and fry it.
4.Add salt, carrot, coriander leaves, coconut and stir it.
5.Turn off the stove and let the stuff cool.
6.Now take the rava bowl, add the curd , soda and mix well. Beat it like idli batter ( add some water if needed) .Also add grated ginger now.
7.then mix the above stuff ( step 5) to this rava and curd mixture.
8.Leave it for around 30 mins ( something like fermenting).
9.Smear the idli cups with a little oil or wet it with water. this will prevent the idlies from sticking to the surface
  and helps in easy clean-up. 
10.Steam for around 12-15 mins in pressure cooker or idli cooker (Just like the cooking time of normal idlies).

Serve hot.
