Directions : Kanchipuram Idly Recipe

STEP 1.Wash the rice,and dal separately and soak it along with fenugreek for about 5 hours. Soak poha for about 10 minutes, drain the water and jeep aside for later use.
STEP 2.Grind urad dal and fenugreek until light and fluffy. Remove the batter to a container. Now grind the rice to a light coarse texture and add it along with urad dal batter and mix well. Now grind the poha to a fine paste and add along with the batter and incorporate all together with your hands. By mixing the batter with hands, the fermentation process take place faster due to natural bacteria present in human hands (such as yeast and lactic acid bacteria ) get added in to batter. Cover the container and allow to ferment for about 7 hours. You may keep this in a shallow flat ware with little water in it. This will enhance batter texture, arona and taste.
STEP 3.Once fermentation is complete, add required salt to batter and keep batter aside. Heat a wok on medium flame. Add sesame oil and 1 tsp of ghee to it. Once the oil is not, add now bengal gram, urid and saute till you get aromatic smell. Add now mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Saute till it start spluttering. Add now the remaining - curry leaves, crushed peppercorn, green chili, ginger, broken cashews. Add now the remaining ghee, and saute for about 2 minutes. Add asafoetida and mix well. Remove from the flame and allow to cool.
STEP 4.Now combine above seasoning mix along with the batter, check for salt and consistency.
STEP 5.Heat idly steamer with sufficient water and allow water to boil. Grease idly mold, pour batter below the mold surface and cook for about 15 - 20 minutes.
STEP 6.Do you know! Grinding food in traditional stone grinder taste better than electric grinders.
