What it is

Heera is the main brand of P&B (Foods) Ltd, a Bradford-based company that describes itself as one of the largest independent wholesale distributors of Asian foods in Britain and Europe. Idli arisi is a short, plump parboiled rice, kept for batter rather than for the plate.

Ground with urad dal and left overnight, it gives a batter that rises and steams into soft, spongy idli, then crisps up on the tawa as dosai once it turns a little sour. Choosing between? Heera Idli Rice for the big monthly bag; Udhaiyam Idly Rice, which also comes in 1 kg and 5 kg; Sri Durga Idly Rava to skip grinding the rice.

Tip: Soak a teaspoon of methi seeds with the urad. The batter grinds fluffier and ferments better in a cold kitchen.

Goes well with: Udhaiyam Urid Dal / Gota, Heera Methi Seeds, Idlimate IB Idli Cooker 16
