Grind them like rava.
In a mixing bowl, add the ground cracked wheat, oats and salt and mix well.
Now add carrot, ginger, green chillies, coriander leaves, sour curd and salt and mix well.
Add reqired water and mix it to form a thick idly batter.
Temper the given ingredients and add it to the batter.
Grease the idli plates and keep them ready.
Now add 1 tsp. of eno salt and mix immediately.
Pour this batter in the idli plates.
Steam cook for 10 minutes.
