- Parboiled rice - 1 cup
- Water - as needed
- Salt - a pinch not recommended for babies below 1 year
- Cocount oil - ½ tsp
Method
Heat cocount oil in a pan, add the ground rice paste and fry it in low flame. Fry it until it forms a slightly sticky soft dough. Switch off the flame once done.
When it's still warm, knead the dough well with your hands. Make cylindrical shape out of the dough and place it inside the greased idiyappam press.
Close the lid of the Idiyappam press and press it slowly above the steamer plate.
Steam it for 5-8 minutes. I used my Idli pot for steaming. Steaming time depends on the steamer used. After steaming, carefully transfer to a plate.
