What is an Idli Steamer?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

An idli steamer<\/strong> (also called an idli cooker or idli maker) is a kitchen appliance designed specifically to make idlis<\/strong>, a traditional South Indian steamed rice cake. It typically consists of a stainless steel or aluminum vessel with multiple idli plates (moulds)<\/strong> stacked inside. The base of the steamer holds water, and when heated, the rising steam cooks the idli batter poured into the moulds. Electric idli steamers are also available, which function like compact steam cookers.<\/p>\n
