Description

Rice idli is a popular South Indian breakfast dish that is made with fermented rice and lentil batter. It is a healthy and nutritious dish that is easy to make and is a perfect breakfast option for those who are looking for a gluten-free and low-fat meal. In this recipe, we will be using Nisha Madhulika's method to make rice idli.

Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is around 8-10 hours as we need to soak the rice and lentils overnight before blending them.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is around 15-20 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup parboiled rice
  • 1 cup urad dal
  • 1 tsp fenugreek seeds
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Water as required

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Idli steamer
  • Idli plates

Method

  1. Wash the rice and urad dal separately and soak them in water for around 6-8 hours. Add fenugreek seeds to the urad dal while soaking.
  2. After soaking, drain the water from the rice and urad dal and blend them separately in a blender. Add water as required to make a smooth batter.
  3. Mix both the rice and urad dal batter in a large bowl and add salt. Mix well and keep it aside for fermentation for around 6-8 hours.
  4. After fermentation, the batter will rise and become fluffy.
  5. Grease the idli plates with oil and pour the batter in it.
  6. Steam the idlis in an idli steamer for around 15-20 minutes.
  7. Once done, remove the idlis from the steamer and let them cool down for a few minutes.
  8. Serve hot with coconut chutney and sambar.

Notes

  • Make sure to soak the rice and urad dal for the required time to get a smooth batter.
  • Do not over-ferment the batter as it might turn sour.
  • Grease the idli plates well to avoid the idlis from sticking to the plates.
