1 cup ragi flour, 1 cup idli rice, ½ cup urad dal, 1 tbsp fenugreek seeds, salt to taste, enough water, oil/ghee for idli steamer.
Wash idli rice and urad dal separately, combine with fenugreek seeds, and soak for 4-6 hours.
Grind the soaked ingredients into a smooth batter.
Add ragi flour to the batter, add salt, and mix well. If the batter is thick, add water.
Ferment the batter for 8-12 hours or overnight in a warm place.
Pour water into the idli steamer, grease the molds with oil/ghee, and bring the water to a boil.
