  • Don't keep the batter for a long time after adding the eno fruit salt,steam it right away to get a nice fluffy idly.
  • Here I used slightly sour yogurt to get a nice tangy taste.
  • If the batter is too thick add little more water to adjust the consistency.
  • If the batter is too thin also,the idly doesn't comes out good.
