We have onle one indian grocery store near our place and he does not stock idli rice..so was wondering if i can use basmati rice along with urad dal..???? has anyone tried this ..Here i do get thick italian rice(which look similar to par boiled rice ) but dont know wheter they can be used to making idlies..any other suggestions or ideas would be helpful... To say the truth im craving to eat Idli sambar .... :) tired of pizzas n pastas ...:)

    Hi Gauri,

    Dont worry, you can prepare idly by using basmati rice that too raw one. what you have to do is, just

    soak 2 sp fenugreek seeds for 24 hours and after that you soak rice and udad dal for 6-8 hours. Then grind them. Keep the dough for 12 hours and then make idly. Surely it will come soft.:yes: The feramentation is important, if it is cold season you can keep the dough for some more time or keep it in the MW. Try and give me a feed back.

    All the best.

    Hi Ketal,

    You also try by soaking fenugreek seeds seperately for 24 hours and soak

    udad dal and rice seperatly. Try this and give me a feed back. OK ?

    All the best for you too.:2thumbsup:
