Method

  1. Drain and grind the rice to a slightly coarse texture. Use water as required to make a batter of dropping consistency. Drain and grind the dal, sprinkling water as required to a smooth and spongy batter.
  2. Mix both the batters. Sprinkle salt and mix thoroughly in a whipping motion using your hand. Pour batter into a large vessel, close tightly with a lid and rest in a warm place overnight.
  3. Grease mini idli mould with oil. Pour a spoonful of fermented batter into each dent. Place idli stand in steamer. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or till idlis are done. Demould the idlis when slightly cooled and place in a bowl.
  4. To make tempering, heat oil in a non-stick pan. Add mustard seeds and when the seeds crackle, add black gram, curry leaves, asafoetida and crushed peppercorns. Mix and sauté for a few minutes.
  5. Add tempering to idlis alongwith lemon juice, salt and chopped coriander. Toss to mix.
  6. Serve immediately.
