7 1/4 cups bottled water (chlorine interferes with softening process) |
1 1/2 cups basmati rice |
1/2 cup urad dal (skinned split lentils) |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 teaspoons sea salt |
4 teaspoons vegetable oil (divided) |
Directions:
1. Combine 6 cups water, rice and lentils in a large bowl.
2. Cover and let stand 8 hours.
3. Drain and rinse.
4. Place the rice mixture, 1 1/4 cups water, and sugar in a food processor and puree until smooth.
5. Spoon batter in a clean bowl and cover.
6. Let stand for 12 hours (in a warm place free from drafts) or overnight.
7. Stir in salt.
8. Heat 1/2 tsp.
9. of oil in an iron skillet.
10. Spoon 1/3 cup into pan and heat over medium heat.
