• 1/8 teaspoon soda
• salt to taste

To temper:

• 1 teaspoon oil

• 1/4 teaspoon split urad dal

Instructions

• I got fine corn rava this is it. To a mixing bowl add corn rava.
• It was so fine, just like our white rava. Add thick buttermilk to it.
• Mix well, the consistency will be runny. Keep covered for 5 mins.
• Then add salt and baking soda. Set aside.
• Heat oil and add the items listed under to temper. Now the mixture is a bit thick.
• Now add the tempering and mix well.
• Grease your idli plates with oil, take a ladle full of the batter and pour into the mould.
• Steam cook for 10 mins or until a spoon or inserted inserted into the idlis comes out clean with sticking. Then its done. Switch off.
• Remove the idli plates, dip a spoon in water.
• Using the spoon remove the idlis. Transfer to hot box.

Notes

• I used homemade buttermilk. The mixture will be a bit runny after 5-10 mins resting time the rava will absorb it well. If the mixture is too thick then add little water.
