Dear Priya,
I have not posted the recipe, but just described it in a post.
For grinder use 4 cups, for mixie use 3 cups of rava. Mix with warm water & keep for 30 mts minimum.
Grind 1 cup urad very fine, at the end add soaked rava, salt & give one run. Ferment as usual & make idlis.
For 1 whistle rasam, keep the rasam inside the cooker; close with lid, when steam starts escaping put the weight. Switch off when the first whistle comes. Cool & open.
I know it is not easy to cook with a toddler running around !
Thanks for the feedbacks, Priya !
Love,
Chithra.

FBs: made small onion sambar, pasiparuppu dosai with puikuzhambu, easy kuzhambu, khara bhath. all turned well. i wish i shd try more but my 13 months old daughter varsha keep me busy running after her throught the day. so i always end for recipes in jiffy cooking. shd try to have other recipes soon.
Priya
