Now mash them nicely using back of your spoon.
Now add 1.5 cup of rice rava, 1 cup curd and water as required.
Mix and allow to rest for 10 - 15 mins. rice rava (idli rava) has to absorb all the water.
Add water to get idli bater consistency.
Finally add some salt to taste. just before steaming add a pinch of baking soda and mix well till it turns frothy.
Brush the plates with oil and pour the batter immediately into the idli plate. do not rest the batter.
