    You say "2 days hard work", but in those 2 days there's far more "soaking time" and "fermenting time" than actual working time.

    Technical question – what's doing the fermenting? You don't add any kind of yeast or bacterial inputs.

    Hello Chetna that looks amazing I've never tried idle before I've been wanting to try them but I was a bit scared if it comes wrong, I will give that a try hopefully 😁❤ thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe 😁❤️🥰

    Hi Chetna, I have tried Idli here in South Africa before but they were the sweetened version made with maize flour and all purpose flour or cake flour. To ferment I normally add yeast. I am eager to try out your version. Looks divine. Thank you 😊

    In India we took our ingredients (rice and dal) to a local house where they had a garage business for grinding doughs and batters, something that all the local households needed. They had a quasi commercial scale grinder. The next day i think we walked over and picked up the fermented batter and paid them for the grinding. It was so enterprising and typical of Indian neighborhoods 😅

    I have a question – why can't we soak everything together and then blend them together? I've always wondered. Thanks! I'm definitely trying this finally.

    I'm so grateful for your idli video! It's totally doable now! I've made dosa and uttapam but, haven't tried idli so, can't wait. But, I've only made sambar from a pre-packaged spice mix and just found your recipe and it's from scratch!!! Yeah! Will try soon. Thanks again for all your patience, spirit and expertise. Really appreciate.

    Those seem similar to dumplings, only both, much easier and way more complicated! I look forward to attempting this recipe! Thanks!

    You can use that exact same batter to make dosa. It's basically the same thing. Maybe the rice to dal ratio is slightly different but you can still do it..just water the batter down a bit more for the dosa
