Whole Green Gram                      - 1 cup

Parboiled rice                                - 1/2 cup

Urad dal [or] Poha                        -  1/4 cup

Methi seeds                                   - 2 tsp

Salt                                                - to taste

METHOD

Soak rice and dal for minimum12 hours or overnight.

Soften the poha by sprinkle enough water on them.

Grind soaked rice, green gram, sprouted methi seeds and urad dal or poha to make smooth batter. 

Can use blender or grinder to grind ..

If using Grinder... grind green gram separately in Blender.. as  Green gram contains skin, it is not easy to grind to smooth batter in Grinder...

Mix everything well with  salt.

Allow to ferment this mixture  overnight.

Pour the idli batter on to the greased idli moulds and steam cook for 7-8 minutes or until done.

Goes well with sambar and chutney.........
