Everybody loves idly. This small delicious dish is a staple of the Indian diet. Extremely popular down South, idly is well-loved in North India as well. As a wholesome meal, there aren’t many things as healthy as an idly. They help give us a healthy option that also tastes great.
Idly is a big part of the daily consumption in Southern-India. It is one of the few dishes that can be had for breakfast, lunch, dinner and evening snack too. That’s how versatile it is. The problem is when people start trying to make idly and it doesn’t come out right.
A popular solution to this problem is adding baking powder to the batter. Many people think that by adding baking powder, they can help the batter ferment better. Although this might help the batter rise, it actually is a bad idea. Baking powder imparts a poor flavour. Idly batter is supposed to ferment naturally.
So what is an easy way to make sure that your idly comes out right? The answer is to use a good quality batter. iD Fresh Idly batter is your best bet to make delicious idly without having to add anything.

How to use:
Wash the pack before you use the batter.
Cut open the pack and add salt if required. The batter is only mildly salted.
If you are making idlies, directly scoop the batter out and pour it into the idly steamer. Stir the batter before pouring it into the moulds of the idly steamer for the softest idlies.
If you are making dosas, add some water to dilute the batter. After dilution, the batter can no longer be used to make idlies.
To make the perfect dosa, stir the batter before pouring it out on the pan and spreading it.
Serve hot with an accompaniment of your choice.
