On HIGH cook for 3 minutes and next cook on MEDIUM for 10 minutes.

You can alter the quantities of oats and sooji as per your taste. It is more healthier if you increase the oats quantity but the taste and the texture of the idlies changes. Same with the quantity of vegetables you can add more or less.
