Idli is a type of savoury rice cake and it also a popular as a breakfast in Indian. The rice cake are made by steaming a batter. Actually there have a idli mold in the market, but i didn't buy and i just use a bowl to steam it as the shape i want.
How to make the Idli batter? I use back the same ingredient for Thosai Batter.
Ingredient :
- 2 cup Raw Rice
- 1/2 cup White Urad Dal
- 1/2 tsp Fenugreek
- 1 cup Cooked Rice
- 2 tsp salt
Instruction:
1. Add Raw Rice, White Urad Dal & Fenugreek in a big bowl and wash it.
2. Drain the water and add enough water to cover it and soak about 6 hour.
3. Add in cooked rice and mix it well.
5. Drain the water and add 1/3 in the blended machine and add in water level same with rice and blended until raw rice and dal be fine. ( use hand to feel it).
6. Then pour to another dry big bowl and continues the others.
7. After complete the balance add in the salt and mix it well and cover it put aside about 10hour. ( Let it raise)
8. After 10 hour, you can see the batter very thick. Then you stir 1 or 2 round then can start to do the idli.
9. Due to i use the bowl as my idli mold, i'll put the food wrap on top of bowl, then only pour the batter into it. Don't pour full on the bowl just 1/3 or 1/2 then enough.
10. Then can start to steam about 10min +-/. After remove from the mold then can be served.
Idli can pair with many type of Chutney or curry or tiffin sambar. For me i just prepare some curry fish eat together with my idli.
