Description

At Naturley, our Heritage Idli Rice Mix is made from time-honoured traditional Tamil Nadu rice varieties, carefully picked for their natural aroma, texture, and nutrition. Crafted in small batches, it offers the authentic softness and flavour of traditional idlis - just like the ones made in village kitchens.

The rice in this mix comes from indigenous varieties cultivated on our organic farms, where they are grown using sustainable methods that respect the soil and water. These ancient grains are naturally rich in minerals and have a low glycaemic index, making your idlis not just delicious but wholesome and gut-friendly. Every grain carries the legacy of centuries-old farming wisdom.

Best used within 6 months. Keep in an airtight container for lasting flavour.

Frequently asked questions

Our mix contains six traditional South Indian rice varieties:
Karuppu Kavuni (rich in antioxidants)

- Mapillai Samba (stamina-boosting, high fiber)
- Poongar (cooling, circulatory health)
- Kichli Samba (low glycemic index)
- Thooya Malli (aromatic, supports digestion)
- Vasanai Seeraga Samba (fragrant, supports cell health)

Together, they offer a nutrient-rich, flavorful base for soft idlis and crispy dosas.

Soak the rice mix for 6 hours and soak urad + chana dal for 3 hours. Grind the dal first into a smooth paste, then grind the rice mix into a slightly coarse batter. Combine both, let it ferment for about 6 hours, and add salt just before making your dish.

Unlike regular batter made from a single rice type, our mix blends six heritage varieties for better nutrition, digestibility, and taste. It’s unpolished, chemical-free, and offers better gut health, sustained energy, and richer flavor.

Yes! This batter is incredibly versatile. Use it for idlis, dosas, uttapams, paniyarams, or even appams. You’ll get soft textures and enhanced flavor across all dishes.

The deep, earthy color comes from antioxidant-rich rice like Karuppu Kavuni and Mapillai Samba. These traditional varieties are naturally darker and more nutrient-dense — a sign of their purity, not any additives.

Once fermented, the batter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days. Make sure it's kept in an airtight container and always use a clean spoon to maintain freshness.
