Ingredients To make Idly Dosa Batter :

  • Urad dal - 1 cup
  • Idli rice OR Boiled rice - 5 cups
  • Methi seeds ( Fenugreek seeds ) - 2 tsp
  • Water
  • Salt- 5 tsp

Homemade Idli Dosa Batter:

Take the Rice and methi seeds in a big bowl .Wash rice and methi seeds and soak it in water overnight.


Wash urad dal and soak it in cold water for about 45 mts to an hour.


I use wet grinder for grinding.First grind the urad dal for about 40 mts by adding little water. After it has been ground fine , Transfer it to a vessel.Then add soaked rice to the grinder and run it for about 45 mts.


Transfer it to a vessel and mix both the batter together by adding salt.

 

Allow it to ferment and leave it aside for 10-12 hrs or overnight.


The Batter would have risen . Use that to make Idly or Dosa . Refrigerate the remaining batter and the batter is good to use for 7 days when refrigerated .

Idli preparation:
Lightly oil the Idly pans.Pour batter on idly moulds .


Steam cook for 20 minutes .


Insert a tooth prick to check if the idlys are done that the inserted tooth prick comes out clean .


Allow the idly to cool a bit and remove the idly using a spoon .


Serve hot with Chutney , Sambar .
