To make it soft, fluffy, spongy only ingredients and measurement plays an important part. When measuring ingredients take the same cup to measure rice and dhall and we need to take heaped cups of both ingredients.
1.We need to wash both rice and dhall well atleast 3-4 times.
2. Soak Idli rice for atleast 2.5 hrs before you grind, but for whole urud dal only 45 min before is enough.
3. Wash and soak idli rice first. After 2 hrs wash and soak urud dal.
There is a slight variation in measurement, when you grind in Mixie and Wet grinder.
For Mixie 1:3....1 whole urud dal: 3 Idli rice...
For Mixie 1:3....1 whole urud dal: 3 Idli rice...
Ingredients: ( Wet grinder)
Idli rice - 4 cups
Whole urud dal - 1 cup
Methi / Fenugreek seeds - 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Method:
# Soak idli rice and urud dal separately.
With urud dal add methi seeds and soak.
# Whether using wet grinder or Mixie always grind whole urud dal first and just Sprinkle little water and with your hand give a mix in every 10 min. To get a nice fluffy dough.
# Always use hands as with our body heat the idli batter will get furmented well.
# Once urud dal is grinded well....remove from the grinded or Mixie.
# Idli rice should be grinded well and smooth batter.... while grinding rice add salt according to your taste.
# Atleast 1/2 hr before you prepare your Idlis, need to keep the idli batter out of the refrigerator.
# Give a nice mix..from the batter you can find whether your Idlis will be fluffy and soft.
# In an idli steamer add water, Grease oil in idli plates and steam for 20-25min.
# Check with a knife, if it comes out clean that means your Idlis are done.
Allow for few minutes and with the help of a spoon...dip it in water then remove the Idlis from plate.
Serve with Chutney or Sambar.
