			      		 In the preparation of idli, generally rava made from 'uppudu biyyamu' or par-boiled rice is used. That is available in the Indian grocery shops in the west with the names of 'cream of rice' or 'idli rava'. Make sure that the 'rice rava' is the rava of 'uppudu biyyamu' before using it to make idlis . In case the rice rava is the rava of the rice that we usually cook, it is ideal for cooking other dishes (like minapattu,uppudupindi,vundrallu etc).  The ratio of pre-soaked urad dal to yava is generally 1 : 1.5 or 2. You will have to soak dal and rava separately for 6-8 hours, grind smoothly the soaked dal, mix in rava and ferment for another 6-8 hours. Please find the Idli recipe available in Ammas recipes and you could follow it.         <P>
