 Idli Batter  Recipe

5 Cups Idly Rice 
1 Cup and a handful  whole Urid dhall
1  Tsp Fenugreek seeds whole soaked along with the urid dhall.
1/2 cup Aval (beaten rice )  soaked along with the urid
Salt to taste 
Enough water to grind

Method using a wet grinder.

Can do the same using a blender as well,I personally prefer the wet grinder.

Wash the rice till the water runs clear, soak for approximately 4-5 hours.
Wash the urid dhall  till it runs clear  soak for 3 hours.
Grind the urid dhall first till light and fluffy approximately 45 minutes in the grinder remove and then add the soaked rice grind till you get the desired consistency I like mine slightly coarse.Approximately 22-25 minutes.
Add the ground urid dhall with the ground rice in the grinder till it is well combined and comes together  approximately 2 minutes.

Remove,add salt and let it ferment overnight depending on the weather it would approximately take about 6-8 hours.
