The curd has to be only sufficiently sour and the batter has to be real thick, for softer idlies.

Dear Narmadha... You just need to add 1/2 tsp Eno or Baking Soda in it as an additional ingredient.

Why do you want to fry the rava. Add the fried things to rava and mix with curd/ butter milk along with ENO/ soda-bi-carb and then fill it in idli moulds. You get oil free idli in 7-10 mniutes in a pressure cooker without whistle.

u can also add some grated carrot, peas and coriander to the batter to be colourful and it also gives a good taste.

Use Butter milk instead of curd and add some soda by carb and eno.1/8 tsp soda and 1/4 tsp eno will do the trick .

As Indu said the curd has to be sufficiently sour, and you can add a bit of water to the batter just before steaming the idlies, as rawa has a tendency to soak in all the moisture from the curd, once you leave the batter to st for more than 1/2 an hour.

Hi, I think we have to use the soar curd and allow it for 3 to 4 hours for rava to become soft. Then steam it in cooker so that idli will not be hard and it will be tasty
