3 cup Parboiled Rice
1 cup Black gram (Uzhunnuparippu)
1 tsp Salt
Water, to taste

Preparation

Step 1
Preparation method for Idli 1)Wash and soak rice and dal separately for 6 hours.
Step 2
Grind rice and dal separately in a mixie or grinder. While grinding, add water until the paste becomes uniformly fine.
Step 3
Mix together rice, dal and salt. Add little water and give it a good stir to form a thick batter.
Step 4
Keep it overnight to ferment.
Step 5
Spread any oil on the idlI mould.
Step 6
Pour the batter on idli moulds and steam the cooker for about 5-7 minutes.
Step 7

Tip

Grinding spices fresh makes a noticeable difference. Pre-ground powders lose their punch within weeks. Buy whole, toast lightly, and grind as you need.
