Ingredients

• 1 & 1/2 cups medium grained rice
• 1/2 cup split black gram (urad dal)
• 1/4 cup yogurt, slightly beaten
• 1-2 green chillies, thinly sliced (or  1/2 tsp green chilli paste)
• 10-12 whole peppercorns
• 1 tsp oil
• 1 tsp fruit salt (Eno)
• 1/2 tspn Coarsely ground black pepper
• Chilli powder (optional) for garnish
• Salt to taste

Process

• Soak the rice and black gram separately, at least for 6-7 hours.
• Drain the rice and grind it in your processor until it becomes a paste. The texture will still feel coarse/grainy.
• Next grind the black gram. Add water only if required.
• Now mix both the batters.  Add the yogurt, salt , peppercorns and mix well. Ferment overnight.
• The next day – add the sliced green chillies (or chilli paste) and oil . Mix well.
• Keep the steamer ready – there should not be a delay after the fruit salt is added to the batter.
• Now add eno and mix well, sprinkle red chilly powder & pepper powder on the top , and pour the batter into the plate.
• Steam for about 1015 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Let it cool for few minutes and then cut out pieces – diamond shaped or square – whatever strikes your fancy! And its ready to go inside your tumyyyyyyyyyy…yummyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Enjoy ting !!! 😉
