- Dry roast oats in a pan. Allow it to cool down and grind it into a fine powder in blender.
- Take a bowl and add ground oats powder, roasted semolina/rava/sooji ,salt and curd. (If using unroasted sooji/rava do roast it in low flame until nice aroma is emitted before use. Make sure not to brown the sooji/rava) Then add water gradually to form thick batter. (I used around 3/4 cup water) Make sure the batter is thick in consistency like regular idli batter. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes.

Notes
- Dry roast oats in low flame without burning them.
- Make sure the batter is thick which will yield fluffy idli. So add water little by little.
