Soft & Fluffy Idli

INGREDIENTS

1 cup black gram dal (udad)
1cup boiled rice
1 cup raw rice
1\4 cup oil
salt to taste

METHOD

Soak the udad dal and the boiled and raw rice separately in water for 3 hours. Then grind the udad dal to a fine paste. Next grind the rice together into a coarse paste. Now, use both your hands to mix both the pastes and add salt. Cover and keep overnight.

Next morning, mix the batter well. Make sure that you grease the idli moulds before pouring the batter. Fill the moulds about 3\4 and then steam them for about 20 minutes. After awhile, open the idli cooker and demould the hot, steaming idlis with the help of a blunt knife.
