It was very cold so my batter could not ferment properly so I added baking soda to it and now you can add salt as per taste.
Grease or brush the idli mould with oil all over evenly.
Now with a spoon pour portions of the batter in the greased idli moulds.
Keep the idli mould in the steamer or pressure cooker. Steam for 12 to 15 minutes
Check for doneness by carefully inserting a knife. If it does not come out clean, then keep again for a few more minutes.
