    There's a better way to ferment ildi/thosai batter.

    When you're cooking anything for about 20 mins, for example dhal, rice, curries, etc just place the batter container beside it, it'll get well fermented after that regradless of where you store for the next 6 hours. :)

    Yes I do the same, I usually put my batter container near stove top when cooking some dishes or near window where I can get the sunlight inside. It would be fermented within 3-4 hours.
