When making idlies add water if needed to the batter should be of thicker consistency than the dosa batter.

Pour the batter in the idly stand and let it steam for 20 mins.

For many people making specific ragi idly batter might be difficult, you can use this alternate method.

Idly batter - 3 cups

Add the ragi flour to the idly batter and add some water to make it the right consistency.
