Millet masala dosa
Millet dosa
Delicious millet dosa
INGREDIENTS :
2 Cups kodo millets or barnyard miltes for a millet paper dosa
3/4 cup udad dal
1/2 cup rice flour or any millet flour if you do n ot want to use any rice in your recipe
2 tbsp chana dal
1/2 tsp of fenugreek seeds ( to get that rich brown colour )
3 tbsp of soaked millet poha ,
1 1/2 tbsp fine sooji / rava to be added to ground batter and fermented .
METHOD
wash the millets well in many changes of water till it is clear, then soak for at least 8 hours , Soak udad dal with Chana dal separately for 4 hours.
Grind first the udad dal and chana dal to smooth batter. Grind millets and rice flour or millet flour together and add to udad dal batter .
Towards the end add the cooked kodo millet rice or millet poha , also and grind well. Add the fine rava to batter and mix well. Let batter ferment overnight .
During hot summers I prefer to soak overnight very late around 10 pm before going to bed , grind for batter at 6am and it gets fermented within 4 1/2 hours , so by 11 am we can enjoy a good brunch of yummy paper dosas or masala dosas .
This way the batter doesn’t get over fermented and stays sour free.
Grind separately or together . Let ferment overnight as usual if you live in colder regions , when fermented add salt mix well , prepare dosas by spreading batter as much as possible all over .
Scrape off the middle thicker portion and scrape all over too this ensures a. very crisp dosa need not flip over .
Simply roll up and serve when hot and very crisp .
Believe me this paper dosa remains crispy even when cool till the last bite .
For a masala dosa you can spread the batter keeping it little thicker like shown below and not spread thin all the way till the edge .
