Rice Idli

Ingredients:

• Boiled Rice: 1 cup
• Idli rice: 3 cups
• Fenugreek seeds: 2 tbsp
• Poha: 1/4 cup
• Urad daal (washed) :1 cup
• Chana daal: 1/4 cup

 - Wash and Soak all the above ingredients  in water for 4-5 hours.
 - Grind them properly and keep it overnight for fermentation

• Salt: to taste (Add only, before making dosa)
• Oil: 2-3 tbsp

Method:

1. Before making idlis, add salt in the batter.
2. Slightly oil the idli moulds.
3. Pour batter in the idli moulds and steam them for 10-15 mins.
4. Serve hot with coconut chutney or sambhar.

PS:

• If using microwave, 4-5 mins should suffice.
• To make soft idlis, soak a handful of poha along with rice and grind them well to a smooth thick batter.
• For idli batter, some people also use idli rava ( instead of boiled rice and idli rice) with urad daal.
• The ratio of idli rava : urad daal is 2.25 cup (idli rava): 1 cup (urad daal)
