Equipment

  • Streamer with Idli
  • Idiyappam Press

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Finger Millet Flour Ragi
  • 1.5 cups Water
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tsp Cooking Oil

Instructions

  • Heat a nonstick pan and dry roast the ragi flour on low flame till a nice aroma comes. It takes about 3-4 minutes.
  • In another pan, bring the water to a boil. Add salt and oil to it.
  • When it starts to a rolling boil, add the flour and quickly mix it well until incorporated.
  • Cover and keep it aside for 10 mins.
  • Using a spoon, knead the dough until you can handle the heat.
  • Grease your palm and knead well until the dough becomes smooth.
  • Take the idiyappam press and grease it with oil.
  • I used my idli plates, so grease it well.
  • Fill the Idli steamer with water.
  • Meanwhile, place banana leaves on the molds.
  • Divide the dough into equal balls, and fill it into the press.
  • Over the plate, press the prepared dough inside the idiyappam press.
  • Press in a circular motion onto the idli plates. Make sure you spread your hand in a wide circle, else everything will fall in the same spot.
  • Stack the plates and place them inside the big pot. Steam for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the leftover dough from the press, grease if required, and repeat until all done.
  • Once steaming is done, allow it to stand for 10 minutes.
