Chef's Notes
Semolina drinks moisture like a thirsty knight after a battle, so never skip the resting period or your idlis will turn out as dense as a medieval castle wall.
Pro Tip
Always ensure your curd is at room temperature before mixing, otherwise it will shock the roasted semolina and ruin the hydration process.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to grease the idli plates properly will cause your beautiful semolina creations to weld themselves permanently to the metal, resulting in a tragic breakfast scramble that even a street dog would judge.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the Jester if he liked the idlis, and he said they were 'steamy' enough to rival the drama in the royal court.
The Culinary Science
Fruit salt or Eno contains sodium bicarbonate and citric acid, which react with moisture to release carbon dioxide gas bubbles, giving your idlis that legendary sponge-like rise.
