Ingredients
- 300 ml Wheat (husk removed by pounding)
- 75 ml Urad dal (using the traditional maakaani measure)
Instructions
- Soak the wheat for 1 hour and grind it well. Grind the urad dal too until it becomes as fluffy as butter, then mix in salt and knead the batter. After letting it rest for 8 hours, you can make idli or dosa. In the same way, batter can also be ground using pearl millet or finger millet to make idli and dosa — these turn out soft and tasty. Vegetables can also be added to make vegetable idli.
