How to make

  • To begin with, Thatte Idli, wash all the ingredients and soak each separately.
  • Soak rice and sabudana for about 4-5 hours and urad dal and beaten rice for 1-1.5 hours.
  • Grind the urad dal first in a mixer or a grinder, into a smooth paste adding enough water. Add the water in intervals.
  • Once, urad dal is done, add rice, poha, and sabudana and grind adding little water. Grind them all together into a smooth batter and make sure that the final batter should be smoother than the normal idli batter.
  • Transfer the ground batter to a big vessel, add salt, mix well and keep aside for fermentation for about 10-12 hours.
  • After 10-12 hours, mix gently before pouring into the greased idli plate. If you want to add the soda, you can add it before pouring it into the greased plates.
  • Steam the idlis for 8-10 minutes in an idli steamer.
  • Serve Thatte Idli with sambar and coconut chutney for a perfect meal.
