Hi Hetal and Anuja
Thanks .. those tips are really really useful.
Even leftover Rice can be put in a colander with water below in a pan. It gets hot evenly.

Good tips. I was thinking we could even use a pasta pot or a steamer (the steel ones that have the inside fitting vessel with holes)to heat the idlis.
