A healthy variant of Idli, and easy to make!
Ingredients :
Idli Rice: 1.5 cup
Horse Gram: 1 cup
Urad Dhal: 1 cup.
Method:
Soak all the three ingredients separately for up to 3-4 hours, and horse gram needs a longer soaking time for up to 8 hours.
Once soaked, grind the urad dhal into a smooth buttery batter with little water, followed by Idli rice that can be ground slightly coarse, and then finally horse gram into a smooth batter.
Mix all the three together and add salt per taste.
Allow it to ferment for 6-8 hours. The batter will have a pungent smell from horse gram and that is normal.
Steam it in an Idli steamer for 10-12 minutes in medium flame and enjoy with any spicy chutney or Sambar.
