Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Prepare Idli Molds

   Grease the idli molds with a little oil using a brush to prevent sticking.

   Pour a ladleful of idli batter into each greased mold, filling it about three-quarters full.

3. 3.Assemble Steamer

   Carefully place the filled idli plates into the idli steamer.

   Cover the steamer with a lid and steam the idlis for about 10-12 minutes on medium-high heat until they are fluffy and cooked through. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.

   Once steamed, allow the idlis to cool slightly, then remove them from the molds and serve hot with chutney or sambar.
