  • 1 cup Urad dal
  • 2 large Carrots
  • 1 cup Peas
  • 1 large Onion
  • 2 inches Ginger
  • 3 cloves Garlic

  1. Rinse 2 cups of rice and 1 cup of urad dal, then soak them in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until they are soft and have broken down.
  2. Drain and grind the rice and urad dal into a smooth batter, using a blender or food processor, adding water as needed to achieve the right consistency.
  3. Add 2 large grated carrots, 1 cup of peas, 1 large diced onion, 2 inches of grated ginger, and 3 cloves of minced garlic to the batter and stir to combine, then add 1 teaspoon of salt and stir to combine.
  4. Heat a steamer basket over boiling water, then pour the batter into the basket and steam, covered, for 15-20 minutes, until the idli are cooked through and fluffy.
  5. Use a knife or spatula to loosen the idli from the sides of the basket, then remove them from the steamer and serve hot with your favorite chutney or sambar.
  6. To make the idli more tender, you can add a little water to the batter and stir to combine, then steam them for an additional 5 minutes, until they are cooked through and fluffy.
