DEMOULDING |
In the Idli pot add water and grease the idli tray. Cover it for 3 minutes so that steam starts to build up. Add 1 tbsp of this mixture in the mould and put it in the idli pot. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
Serve hot with sambhar and chutney or use it as a quick snack.
TIP : Let it rest for 5 minutes and use only the tip of the knife to demould.
As you may break the idli elsewise.
