         Title: Idli (Steamed South Indian Rice Cakes)   
    Categories: Breads, Indian   
         Yield: 2 Servings   
       
         2 c  Rice   
         1 c  Urad dal   
       
     Soak rice and dal in water in separate pots for 10 hours.   
        
     Grind each separately with a little water in a food processor until   
     smooth. Mix with hands the rice and dal to form the idli batter. The   
     batter should be thick but slightly runny. Set the batter aside for   
     about 8 hours to let it rise and sour slightly.   
        
     Idlis are cooked in idli steamers, available at most Indian groceries.   
     Ladle batter into each buttered compartment of the idli maker and   
     steam for 20 to 30 minutes. Cool for a minute; remove idli from bowl.   
     There is no need to ghee the bowl. Experiment to find the best   
     cooking time.
