A woman prepares a late-night snack of Idli Shakshuka. She mixes semolina and yogurt for the idli batter, then chops onions and tomatoes, and blends some tomatoes with garlic and paneer for a gravy. She cooks the onions and tomatoes, adds spices and the blended gravy, then pours the idli batter into the pan to steam. Finally, she adds a tempering of mustard seeds and curry leaves before serving and tasting the dish.
