Put rice, toddy, 1 cup
coconut, salt and ½ cup castor sugar in a blender jar and grind into a coarse batter. Transfer the batter into a bowl and keep it in a warm place to ferment overnight.
Heat sufficient water in
a steamer. Grease idli moulds.
Pour a ladle of batter
into each mould, keep them in the steamer and steam for 10-15 minutes.
Mix remaining castor
sugar and coconut in a separate bowl.
Take the idli moulds
out of the steamer, cool slightly and demould them.
Coat each idli with
some the coconut-sugar mixture, arrange them on a serving platter and serve.
