Idy Recipe link

I originally read about idlies in Sandor Katz's Wild Fermentation.  They are yummy little steamed cakes made from fermented lentils and rice and served with chutney.  This link shows the traditional approach to making idlies.  This project requires some special equipment namely the idly steamer shown in the pictures on the link and a pressure cooker.  I found an inexpensive idly steamer at an Indian grocer and it fit nicely inside the pressure cooker I already have.  Katz's recipe suggests using a pressure cooker and I'm not sure if it is possible to fudge your way through this project without these two main pieces of equipment.  But the resulting steamed cakes are a nice doughy treat for someone who can't otherwise enjoy traditional dough.
