Idli using Idli Rava Recipe | Soft Idli using Idli Rava in Mixie | South Indian Soft Idli

All my new year's resolutions were usually forgotten in a day or two. However, to keep up one of my resolutions, I have worked really hard this month and managed to share 8 new recipes here. Idli is a very common breakfast in our home and I have already shared my Idli Dosa batter here. Making Idli using Idli Rava was very new to me and I came to know about this from my colleague Rama when I was with TCS. She is from Andra Pradesh and at her home, they always do it this way. I asked her the recipe and tried it for the first time when I was in Chennai. Since then I have wanted to share the recipe here and it is happening now.

Homemade Idli Dosa batter Recipe | Failproof Idli Dosa Batter| Idli Recipe | Plain Dosa Recipe | South Indian Soft Idlis | Breakfast Recipes

Idli/Dosa is a traditional breakfast in south India. It is one of the healthiest and popular breakfasts. In my school and college days, I love only dosa and don't prefer Idlis at all. However, I started missing my mum's softest Idli during my PG hostel days. She makes fabulously soft idli and serves it with runny coconut chutney tempered with small onions(shallots). She says the softness of the Idli mainly depends on the quality of the urad dal used. Also, she never soaks the urad dal for more than 30 minutes and she skips the fenugreek seeds to get pure white Idlis. I follow her measurements(4 cups idli rice: 1 cup urad dal) religiously when I was in Chennai and it gives amazing results. 
After we move to Sydney, the quality of the urad dal we get here is different and I didn't get soft idlis with this measurement. After so much trial and errors, finally, I have settled with (2 cups idli rice:1 cup urad dal) and a handful of Poha(Aval). This failproof Idli & Dosa batter is giving me the perfect sponge idlis. 
I will explain both the measurements in this post and you can choose anyone based on the type of urad dal. The good quality urad dal will give the fluffy batter.
