- Make sure the batter is light in weight. It is possible by grinding urad dal fluffy, by adding water little by little in regular intervals.
- The more airy your urad dal is, the lighter your batter and so is your idly.
- You should be able to see airy bubbles in the urad dal batter while grinding. If you drop a tsp of urad dal batter in a bowl of water, then it should float. Then its is correctly ground.
- Grind both batters separately and then mix. Then only you will get more volume of the batter.
- If you live in a hot temperature country, try keeping the batter for less time to ferment.
- If you are living in cold temperature countries, grind the batter and keep it inside the oven with oven light on. It will help in fermenting.
- Add a fist full of cooked rice while you grind rice, this will give extra soft idli.
- Another tip to get dream soft idli is to soak a fist full of poha/aval or sago/javarisi along with rice.
