Hi DaVinci,

for soft idlis,

3 cups broken salem idli rice ( you get it in Bangalore)

three-fourth gola (round) urad dal

1 teaspoon methiseeds

1 teaspoon aval

1. soak idli rice (not idli rava, definitely NO) in hot water in a casserole 9 preferrably)

2.soak dal, methi aval together in normal water.

3.grind rice like this in mixie-----in switch 1, imin. running

in switch 2,2 mins rng and in switch 3, 2mins rng.

4 likewise with dal also.

5mix wery well.

6while preparing, just gently use from the top layer, taking care not to mix all the batter from top to bottom.

7. for sourless idlis, dont add salt while grinding, but add salt at the time of its use only.

8. happy idllying!
