IDLY / IDLI (SOFT IDLY with HOMEMADE IDLI / DOSA BATTER)

Idly / Idli the most healthiest breakfast, and a popular South Indian dish. Though preparing the batter is a long process, but once done, it makes life easy. Can be stored in fridge for 5 to 6 days. I normally grind it in huge volume and refrigerate. It is a multi purpose batter, which can be used to make different dishes like Idli, Dosa, Uthappam, Kuzhipaniyaram, even bonda's etc. This batter not only gives very soft Idly, but also crispy dosa. If the batter beomes sour , you can make uttappam. I normally don't use store bought idly dosa batter, as it's not healthy and hygienic.
