Idli

Idli for breakfast is really healthy and it is very tasty with any curries...........i'm not very much fond of idlis but my kids and hubby love idlis......... my kids like to have idlis with sugar......


















Ingredients:

2c Raw white rice
1c Urad dal(uzhunnu parippu)
3/4 c Cooked rice
3/4 tsp fenugreek seeds
Water as required
Salt




















Method:

1.Soak raw rice,urad dal and fenugreek seeds for 4 to 6 hrs or over night.
2.Soak both seperately or together.
3.Grind this together or seperately along with water and mix together.The batter should be little thick.(Fenugreek makes the idli more softer and tastier.)
4.Leave it in a warm place for fermentation for 6 to 8 hrs.
5.After it is fermented add salt as per taste.
6.Now boil water in a idli steamer and pour one ladle of batter in each idli mould and steam it till cooked.
7.Have idlis with coconut chutney or any curries.
