Soft & Fluffy Idlis with Instant Pot Fermentation

If you struggle with idli batter fermentation, especially in colder weather, this Instant Pot method has worked really well for me.

I use a simple idli rice + urad dal + methi + poha batter and ferment it on the Yogurt setting. The batter rises beautifully and makes soft, fluffy idlis.

Ingredients
2 cups Idli Rice
1½ cups Urad Dal (Split Black Gram)
1 tsp Methi Seeds (Fenugreek Seeds)
½ cup Thick Poha (Flattened Rice)
Salt (added after fermentation)

I don't make this often, but when I do, it is for mi heina, so you know I gotta make it especial foos! She's my everything, besides lil Oscarita ya know, jaja.

The first time I ever made it for my heina was back when we were little jovencitos, and I wanted to surprise her. Guess what, foos? The rest is history. She is now mi esposa. I won't say it's solely because of this recipe, but it had a HUGE part cabrones!

I won't get into all that right here and right now because you vatos got better things to do than read my old love story. But I will tell you this... this receta will get you where you need to go with your amor, foos.

Don't sleep on this recipe.

Btw sorry to the dude who told me not to use this brand of Sazon. I already have a ton of packets, so I gotta use them up foo. It's hard times out here!

Ingredients:

2 Chicken breasts

2-4 Bell Peppers (any color)

1 Medium Sized Red Onion

5 Garlic Cloves

Onion Powder

Garlic Powder

Chili Powder

Black Pepper

Sazon

Knorr Caldo de Pollo

First, we want to cut our ingredients starting with the bell peppers. Remove the seeds and cut them into slivers. Set aside.

Next, do the same with the onion. Cut them into slivers and set aside along with the peppers.

Grab your garlic and get them minced, set aside on their own.

Now, cut your chicken into slivers, as well. We want them not to be too thick, so you need to cut your chicken as best you can (refer to the video).

Next, we want to add our seasonings together and ensure the combination isn't too much in quantity while tasting it and making sure it is to our liking before dropping our chicken in.

After that, there's no going back!

Now let's cook!

Get some butter on the comal and drop your chicken(on medium heat)!

While you're doing that, get some oil on a pan and get the onions and peppers cooking(on low to low-med)!

Make sure you flip and check on your chicken. When they've been cooking a good 3-5 minutes, add your minced garlic with some extra butter. Mix well.

After about 5-8 minutes (depending on heat), take the chicken and add it to the peppers and onions. Mix well!

Drop a top on the pan, remove the heat, and let it sit for as long as you want (softer peppers).

Enjoy!

My wife and I attempted to make home made Crazy Bread and it worked out pretty well! She liked how it turned out a little on the doughy side, but I think I would have tried to cook it a little longer. Have you tried to make anything like this before? Let me know what you think!
