Hi can you please tell me if you can store the batter in the refrigerator or can it be frozen?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@MissConceptions1

You can keep the batter in the fridge for about 4-5 days, in the freezer for up to 4 months.

Congratulations on promoting delicious Adai to the english speaking people. There was a time when no one knew what Adai was outside of Southern India.

Youtube has made exposure of one of the world's most sophisticated, ancient and affordable cuisines possible.

I Love the recipe. thanks to you I know now how to do it..

[Calicocat2]

Love the recipe, but I always soak for 4 hours. One hour seems way to short. What do you think?

Lovely pancake,I will try making it,two very nice cool calm Ladies.

I tried this recipe. As advised I also soaked the rice and dal mixture for 1 hour but the ingredients were still coarse. You need to change the soaking time to at least 3 hours to get the batter that is shown in the video.
