SOFT AND FLUFFY IDLI RECIPE




Hi...... Today I'm going to share another yummy south indian breakfast idli recipe. So many people fail to make soft and fluffy idly at home. Even I use to fail so many times to make soft idlies. My mom and my aunt (maami) told me the trick to make soft idlies. It is nothing but a soft batter and fermentation. We should grind urad dal in to very smooth paste and need to ferment for 10 to 12 hours. In summer 8 to 9 hours is enough.in other states like Tamil nadu and Kerala idly is made with urad dal and rice but in andhra you mostly find idly made with rava. We here make idly with rava idly. (not soji) . So I'm presenting our idly recipe.

          It well goes with sambar,coconut chutney (recipe here)and nalla karam podi. Follow my recipe to make yummy and soft idly. I hope you like this recipe and you will give this a try and let me know how it turned.
