1 cup | Husked white gram (dhuli Urad Dal) |

Salt to taste
Alternatively, you can use a readymade mix available in the market. Mix according to instructions on the packet and follow cooking instructions below.
METHOD
Soak the rice and gram separately overnight in water to just cover. The next morning, grind well and mix the two. The batter will look like a thick, grainy custard. Add salt. Leave in a large bowl to ferment for 6 hours. It will rise and double in volume. To cook, lightly grease small glass bowls. Microwave on HIGH for 6 minutes for
6 idlis. It is best to arrange the cups in a circle on the MWO turntable. You will have to make the idlis in batches.
