Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cup Semolina fine-grained semolina, rava, also known as suji
- 1.5 tsp Salt adjust to taste
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
Wet Ingredients
Instructions
Preparing the Semolina
- Dry roast the semolina in a pan over medium heat until lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Combining Ingredients
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled semolina, salt, yogurt, and baking soda. Mix well.
Adding Water
- Gradually add water, about 1 cup at a time, while continuously mixing until you achieve a smooth, slightly thick batter. Add more water if necessary to reach the desired consistency – it should be pourable but not runny.
Resting the Batter
- Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the baking soda to activate.
Preparing the Steamer
- Fill the idli steamer with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Greasing the Molds
- Lightly grease the idli molds with oil.
Filling the Molds
- Pour the batter into the molds, filling them about ¾ full. Add a spoonful of green peas to some of the idlis for added flavor and color.
Steaming the Idlis
- Place the filled idli molds into the steamer, cover, and steam for 15-20 minutes, or until the idlis are cooked through and firm to the touch.
Cooling and Serving
- Once cooked, let the idli steamer cool slightly. Carefully remove the idlis using a blunt knife or spatula. Serve hot with sambar and coconut chutney.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Instant Rava Idlis
- For extra fluffy idlis, whisk the batter vigorously before pouring it into the molds.
- Don't overfill the idli molds; leave some space for the batter to rise.
- If your batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
- Experiment with different additions to your idlis, such as finely chopped carrots, cilantro, or even a pinch of curry powder!
