How to Make Idli at Home









Ingredients

Urad dal - 1 cup

Rice - 2 cups

(Ratio 1:2)

Cooked rice - 1/2 cup

Fenugreek seeds - 1 tablespoon
Directions
GETTING READY
1. Start by rinsing the dal and rice separately in cold water .
2. Add the fenugreek seeds to urad dal.
3. Soak both the dal and rice for a minimum of 4 hrs, preferably overnight.

MAKING
4. First blend the soaked urad dal into a thick paste adding very little water. Remove to a large vessel.
5. Next add the soaked rice to the blender along with the cooked rice.
6. Make a thick paste of this too.
7. Add the rice paste to the dal paste and add desired amount of salt
8. Mix with clean hands until everything is well blended.
9. Keep the batter in a warm place and let stand overnight to allow fermentation.
10. Once fermented, the batter will be thick and frothy and significantly doubled in volume. If this fails to happen then the temperature is too low, leave the batter in this case in a much warmer place until properly fermented.

FINALIZING
11. Once the batter is ready, spoon it into greased idli molds and steam cook for 12-15 minutes.

SERVING
12. Serve steaming hot idlis with your favorite condiment like chutney or sambar.
