Idli

 

Idlis are a perfect dish for breakfast. The best part about idlis? Idlis can be enjoyed with any type of chutney / sambar! :))

What you need:

• 2 cups idli rice
• 1/2 cup urad dal
• 1/2 cup beaten rice or rice flakes
• Salt to taste

Method: 

• Wash and soak the rice and urad dal separately for 4-5 hours. Soak the rice flakes separately for an hour.
• Grind the dal in a mixer to form a fine paste. Remove the paste. In the same jar mix together rice and rice flakes and grind to a light course consistency. Mix both the batters and add the salt. Keep it well covered in a warm place for about 8-10 hours. 
• Pour the batter in the idli mould and steam for 10-12 minutes.

Note: 

• Ferment the idli batter for 8-10 hours in a warm place. 
• Soft idlis will be formed with a fluffier batter.
• The batter will double if it has fermented well.
