Making Soft and Fluffy Idlis
Recipe :
Idli rice - 4 cups
Urud dal - 1 cup
Fenugreek seeds - 2 tsps
Soak them for about 4 hours and grind them separately the rice and the dal. When grinding make sure that you grind them into a fine paste.
The consistency of the batter should be pouring consistency. The fenugreek seeds should be soaked separately and should be ground before the rice is ground.
Use your hand to mix both the batters together, Let them outside overnight to ferment.
The fermentation happens well during the summer months in the USA. But during winter it is better if you place them inside your convention oven ( the oven should be turned off) you can leave the light on overnight . Place the batter on a plate so when it overflows it is easier to clean.
