    Hi, since I am not in favour of cooking idlis in MW, I am not able to answer you. They never get cooked properly is my experience.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear Baby, please google & find out all that you have asked for, with photos.
    sabja seed and kaloji seed are different, the former is still tinier than the latter.
    I have not heard of kalonji, taken with water. I only know, methi seeds are taken with water on empty stomach.
    I am not competent to answer health related queries, please.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Not a dumb question at all, Nitha. Definitely double ghee; but add slightly less than double water, just a wee bit less.
    Good luck.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Nitha, if you normally add 1:2, about 3 3/4 should be fine!! Just fluff it up with a fork.
    Love,
    Chithra.
    My opinion is not reversed because answer lies in your question itself!!
