What it is

Idli rice is a short, thick parboiled grain kept for one job: batter. Ground with urad dal, it gives the slightly grainy texture that makes idli soft and dosa crisp, and it ferments well.

The ten-kilo sack is for homes that grind every week. Soak four parts rice to one part urad dal, separately, and grind to a fine grit. It is not for eating as plain rice; for that you want ponni or sona masoori. Choosing between rice? Idli rice for batter; ponni for everyday Tamil meals; idli rava when there is no grinder.

Tip: In an Irish winter, leave the batter in the oven with only the light on. It rises overnight.

Goes well with: Sowbaghya Ultima Stainless Steel Idly Cooker, Heera Urad Gota, MTR Spiced Chutney Powder
