Method
Wash & soak rice and methi in enough water.
Wash & soak urad dal in another bowl.
Soak both at least for 3 to 4 hours.
Drain out excess water from the urad dal,add it to the grinder & grind for at least 40 minutes.
Sprinkle water in intervals till you get a light & nice fluffy batter.Transfer to a wide bowl.
Same way grind the rice and methi for at least 30 minutes to a smooth batter.The batter should be little thicker than urad dal batter.
Transfer to the urad dal batter,add salt mix everything well.
Cover & leave it to ferment overnight or for at least 12 hours.
Next day beat the batter and its ready to use.

Note:
a) If making Idli do not dilute the batter,just beat the batter & steam them in greased idly plates.
b) If making dosa then dilute the batter to a semi thick batter.
c) The texture of the batter totally depends upon the quality of urad dal.Increase the urad dal quantity if you think there is no volume.
d) Always make Idly with fresh batter.
e) For extra softness a handful of poha/aval or cooked rice can be added while grinding batter.
