Idli

Idli rava 2 1/2 cups

Urad dhal 1 cup

Soak urad daal for about 3 hrs and at the same time mix the idli rava with water and let the consistency be thick. Later grind the urad daal till soft and fluffy and mix with the idli rava. Add salt to taste. Mix well.

Place the mixture in a warm place for 8-10 hours or overnight to let the mixture ferment. The mixture will rise. In winter, you can place it in oven (switched off). Grease the idli maker plates with the oil and fill with the idli batter. Steam, covered for about 10 minutes.

Note

Fermentation is the key step in making fluffy idlis. The softness of idlis (like sponge) depends on proper fermentation. After fermentation, the mixture should increase to at least double the volume. The fermentation is slow in winter and quick in summer.

if you do not have idli maker take a flat bottom wide pot. Pour 2 cups of water. Invert a round cake tin on the base of the skillet. Take another round cake tin, lightly grease it and fill it to a height of about half inch with the batter. Place this on top of the inverted cake tin. Steam for 8-10 minutes. Remove the idli, cut into smaller pieces and serve hot.

Idlis can be stored in the refrigerator. When required, microwave them for a few seconds to get idlis as good as freshly made and serve with hot sambhar.
