Critical Success Points

  • Soaking the rice and dal long enough for proper grinding.
  • Achieving a smooth dal batter; this determines the fluffiness.
  • Greasing the idli molds to prevent sticking.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot steam carefully to avoid burns.
  • Do not overfill the steamer with water; it may spill into the idlis.
