Method

To Make Idli Dosa Batter

Step 1

Soak idli rice in water. Let the water completely immerse the rice. Allow it to soak for about 6 hours.

Step 2

Simultaneously, soak the urad dal and fenugreek in water in a similar fashion, so that the dal immerses completely in water. Let it also soak for about 6 hours.

Step 3

Grind the urad dal into a fine smooth batter. While grinding, use the water used for soaking to make it into a smooth and fluffy batter.

Step 4

Pour this batter into a large container(Large enough to allow the batter to ferment and increase in its volume)

Step 5

Grind the rice into a smooth paste, adding just the required amount of water to grind into a almost smooth batter. Do not add too much batter else it will become too watery. You can grind the rice in batches for better smoothness.

Step 6

Combine the urad and rice batter, add salt to taste and set aside for overnight or at least 12 hours until the batter ferments. Once fermented, the batter will rise in volume.

For Sprouting

Step 1

Sort the whole grams to remove stones.

Step 2

Wash and then soak in water for 6-8 hours or overnight.

Step 3

After soaking, wash the moong again and drain the Water.

Step 4

Then, hang the soaked moong in a moist cloth for 10-12 hours (depending on the climate).

Step 5

Allow the sprouts to come out of the muslin cloth. Sprinkle water frequently if the cloth becomes dry.

Step 6

If you see short shoots coming out, your sprouts are ready to use.
