All our products are handcrafted and this results in each product being unique and slightly different from each other and therefore will have minor variations on dimensions & weight.Description
In the rustic corners of rural Tamil Nadu, we discovered a hidden treasure-a traditional brass Idli vessel that had been lost to time. It took us three years to unearth this remarkable find, but the effort was well worth it. This incredible cluster of artisans breathed new life into these ancient brass Idli makers, restoring their exquisite charm and unmatched utility.
Crafted from brass, a metal known for its perfect balance of weight and size, our Idli cooker creates the ideal steam pressure, resulting in mouthwatering, tender idlis in just 10 minutes.
The intelligently designed idli plates, featuring strategically placed holes, allow steam to permeate the batter, ensuring thorough and speedy cooking.
For added convenience, the idli plates and the interior of the vessel are tin-coated, offering durability and ease of maintenance.
Choose from three sizes: 7 Idli Pits, 9 Idli Pits, or 12 Idli Pits (details in the specifications table above).
These are made to order products and would take 15-20 days to make and ship.
Note: The traditional work involves only hammering of the outer vessels and the edges might be sharp along the edges. This is minimally worked to smoothen as it could impact the lid closure. This is a natural imperfection which may be present in the idli vessel.

Customer Reviews
The idli comes very soft and you can take out the idli plates and use it for cooking more rice, sambar and biryani.
Idli Patra itself is so beautiful and the idlis came out soft and fluffy.

The taste is awesome.
The only this we noticed is no side handles to hold the cooker. We have to be careful while opening the lid to check the idly.
if handles were provided, it would be great.
very good product.
Hi Ravi
Thank you very much for the review. We did explore one with handle but the handles of brass was also getting really hot and did not add functional value. Hence removed it . We will explore other design possibilities
