Idlis are the staple South Indian food that is regularly made in households. If you are craving authentic South Indian food, it’s best to make fluffy and soft idlis. Here are some tips to get the best batch of idlis
While you do choose quality ingredients, ensure that you take rice and dal in a 2:1 ratio.
Soaking rice and dal for about 4-6 hours before grinding to get a smoother batter, which will make the fluffiest idlis.
Another tip for fluffy idlis is to soak and grind some fenugreek seeds along with rice and dal.
When you grind the ingredients, maintain a thicker batter, using minimal water.
The secret to the fluffiest idlis is to be patient and ferment the batter for 8-12 hours.
