Notes

1. I always grind my rice and urad dal together so I soak for a longer time.

2. While using mixee to grind idli batter, always remember to not let the mixee heat up too much. To prevent this, you can add ice cold water while grinding the batter or leave the rice & dal soaked bowl in the fridge for the last 30 minutes before grinding the batter.

3. If you add too much water then your idlis will become flat.
