Green gram dosa recipe

Healthy, protein rich green gram dosa without rice

Cuisine: South Indian

INGREDIENTS

1 cup - 200 ml Green gram - 1.5 cups White, round urad dal - 1/2 cup Salt & water - as needed

METHOD

Wash and soak the green gram and urad dal separately.Soak the green gram for 5 hours and urad dal for an hour. Grind the urad dal in a big mixie jar or using grinder to a smooth paste adding enough water. Remove the batter to a bowl.The grind the soaked green gram to a smooth paste adding water and salt. Mix both the batter well using your hands.( I used grinder to grind the batter.So I ground the urad dal batter first and added green gram to it for grinding further.If you use grinder, you can follow the same) The quantity of batter ie. the yield will be more if you use grinder :) Ferment the batter overnight or for 12 hours. The next morning, batter would have raised well and light in weight. Heat a dosa pan. Mix the batter thoroughly and pour a big ladleful of batter over the dosa pan. The consistency of batter should be like usual dosa batter. Spread it thin or thick as you wish.Keep the flame medium high and drizzle a tsp of oil around the dosa. Flip the dosa and cook the other side too.Remove it and serve hot with coconut chutney ! Enjoy !

Note

If you feel, the dosa is too soft, reduce the quantity of urad dal to 1/4 cup and try it.

Fermentation is very important else dosa will smell raw. You can grind the batter using mixie or grinder. Use ice cold water for grinding if using mixie. Add sufficient water to bring it to usual dosa batter consistency.

Enjoy this healthy, protein packed dosa with your favorite chutney or sambar for breakfast !!
