Super healthy dish. Steamed wheat flour cake is easy to cook. The batter is to be ready about 6-7 hours before allowing to ferment. I am a person of natural ingredients and available resources in our pantry or in our homestead. No baking powder or yeast is used. Instead I added 2 tbsp. cooked rice and a cup of fermented coconut water.
Preparation
Wheat flour 21/2 cup, Semolina 1/2 cup, salt 1/2 tsp., jaggery 300g, make into syrup in a cup of water, cooked rice 2 tbsp., blended, ghee 2 tbsp., cardamom powder 2 tsp., fermented coconut water 1 cup. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, add little water and mix well to prepare a medium thick batter. If you like more sweetness go for more jaggery. Then blend the mix in a blender, and allow to ferment. After 6-8 hours, grease the idly stand with ghee, when the water is boiled in the cooker, put half a ladle of batter in each holes of the idly stand. Within 10-12 minutes it will get cooked. After 6 minutes open the cooker and place 1-2 ghee fried raisins on the cake and close to cook. Run a fork through the cake to assure it is cooked. Allow to cool down. It will easily get separated from the stand. It’s so soft, delicious and off coarse nutritious.
