Answer:

For Fermentation

Explanation:

The Idli batter is left undisturbed overnight at a warm place in order to get the batter fermented and to let it rise up. The warm environment is and ideal place for the batter to be left because it helps the fermentation process to occur smoothly.

In the process of fermentation, carbon dioxide gas is released by the microbes in the batter, which makes the batter lite and fluffy. The fluffiness of the batter is essential for making Idli.

On observing the batter we see small bubbles in the batter and the batter doubles in volume as compared to its initial volume.
