High Protein Dosa

Healthy/different dosa

The protein fixation continues!! :-D Mixed some dals and chana with brown rice and made dosa out of it. Was pleasantly surprised at the results! I made these a particular way - with onions and chillies and stuck to this all the time as it turned out tastier than making normal dosas out of it.

What you need :

Batter:

Urad Dal - 1/2 cup

Kala Chana (black chana) - 1/2 cup

Split green moong dal - 1/2 cup

Brown Rice - 1 1/2 cup

White rice - 1 1/2 cup

Fenugreek(methi) seeds - 2 tsp

Poha - small handful - optional

Dosa:
Onion - finely chopped
Green chilles - finely chopped or green chilly paste
Coriander leaves/cilantro - finely chopped
Salt - as per taste
Sugar -1 or 2 spoons
Oil

Method : 

1. Wash the dals and rice together, changing water multiple times.

2. Soak the rice and dal mixture with fenugreek seeds and Poha for 8-10 hours. You can soak the rice and dals separately or better mixing/smoother batter.

3. Grind it to a paste.

4. Keep the batter for fermentation overnight/depending on the weather. I usually keep the batter in oven with the light on for faster fermentation. The batter is ready when it is light and fluffy, with air bubbles formed on the surface.

5. Once the batter is ready add the onions, chillies, cilantro, salt and sugar. 

6. Make dosas out of this batter. 

Notes : The dosas are a little thicker than the normal thin dosas. Roast on both sides with oil to get the crispy crunchy taste.
