To pack idlis for lunch or when you're touring, the best thing is to put lots of milagai podi on a plate, put lots of til/ sesame oil on it, mix well, dab the idlis on it well on both sides. This will the idlis last long. In case you're keeping it in the fridge, then when you warm it, then cover the dish with plastic wrap/ sprinkle some water on it, as then the idlis will be soft.
Normally in olden times, this is the way, idlis were packed & taken on long journeys ! At times, along with oil, some hot water is also added to milagai podi, as then the idlis will be soft on long journeys & they're wrapped on banana leaf !
