Before preparing idlis wash idli plate and apply oil and keep.
Should not mix the fermented batter very hard.
Mix gently pour on idli plates. Boil this for 10 minutes in
High flame and 5 minutes in sim.
After taking out the plates allow it to cool and take out the
Idlis with the spoon.
Enjoy the Idlis with hot onion sambar, coconut chutney.
Tips:
1. Grinding in mixer rice quantity is 3 cups.
2. To get soft idlis add 2 tsp oil in the batter.
3. By putting a wet white cloth over idli plate and when U cook this way, U can take out idlis immediately.
4. Salt should be added correctly then only the batter will ferment.
5. Wash rice thoroughly then only idli will turn into white.
6. After soaking do not wash the lentils, nutrition value will loose.

Hi Usha,
Thanks for visiting my blog. I use Ambikas Idli Rice. Once again thanks.
Hi, I live in Germany. I used to make soft idlis and wonderful dosa till the time I had the Idli rice that i got from India. Once that got over, i have the option of just 2 rice that i can buy here in my city. (1 Urad : 2 Rice)
One is basmati rice that we use for our usal boiled rice.
Second is Parboiled rice. However the idlis just are equal to stone and dosa a disaster. We do not get idli rava here.
Please suggest what I cud do for better idlis.
Thanks

HI Roochi,
U can use parboiled rice 2 cups, Basmati Rice 2 cups and Urad dal 1 cup and one fistful. Soak this rice together for 3 to 4 hours and dal for 1 hour separately and try to make idli will come very soft...
(While grinding add washed and soaked Poha (aval) 1/4 cup, this gives idli a soft texture.Thanks
Hi,
Your dtld recipe descriptions with pictures are beautiful.
1. I grind batter for idli in a mixie. Cld this be the reason for my idlis not being white.
I also add raw rice alongwith idli rice.
Pls suggest.
2. Do I need to sieve rice rawa (for ARISI UPPUMA) after dry grinding?
Thanks.
