I found a packet of broken corn during my last visit to my super market. My first plan is to make idlies, puttu and upma using that.This is a instant kind of idli made with curd. But there is another version which is made with grinding urad dal and adding this to that. Will share that as well soon.

Does adding curd will increase our weight
Will try asap…shd look for broken corn ….ty
@kalai vanino it wont.
I prepared your mother's appam recipe today. I did exactly the same way but added sugar, salt and cooking soda instantly after grinding. I am worried about cooking soda. I kept the batter outside for fermentation.
Adding cooking soda earlier is harmful or
not?
Please reply ASAP……….
@Bala JayaseelanYou should not add cooking soda immediately. It should be added at the last minute alone.
Can I use skip eno salt?
@Anonymousno it gives the idli softness
