Palakkad:A small community in Chittur here is serving people with idli the size of dosa.
Ramasseri idli has become famous among people for its size. People from far away places in Kerala come to this spot for tasting the delicious idlis.
Bhagyalakshmi amma is one of those persons who prepare these idlis.
Her customers believe that idli from no other place can match the taste that she delivers.
Eight families of the Mudaliar community migrated from Tamil Nadu about a century ago. Along with them, they brought the taste of Ramasseri, later delivered to people in by the name of Ramasseri idli.
The community is believed to be weavers before entering the food business. They switched occupation as the weaving industry began to witness a downfall.
Initially, they served idlis to people working in paddy fields. Soon after, they transformed a portion of their house into a shop that served idli.
The unique taste and size of the Ramasseri idli soon gained popularity.
