Notes
Using good quality urad dal and fermentation is very important for soft and fluffy idli.
Use ice water for grinding to reduce the heat while grinding.
I used my mixer to make the batter. You can use grinder too
Same batter can be used of Idli as well as dosa.
Consistency of the batter should be little thick for idli and you can add water for dosa batter.
