Rava Idli

Grease the idli plates lightly with oil and bring water in the steamer to a rolling boil.

Whisk the batter gently with salt; do not over-mix or the idlis turn dense.

Fill each mould three-quarters full and steam on medium for 10-12 minutes.

Check with a toothpick — it should come out clean.

Rest 2 minutes, then scoop out with a wet spoon.

Serve steaming hot with chutney, podi and sambar.
