Adai Dosa

Ingredients: 2 tbsp rice 3 tbsp masoor dal (split red lentil) 3 tbsp moong dal (split green gram) 1 tbsp urad dal (split black lentils) 1 tsp methi (fenugreek seeds) a pinch of hing (asfoetida) 2 green chillies - finely chopped 1/2 tsp grated ginger 2 tbsp finely chopped coriander 2 tsp refined oil salt to taste

Method: Wash and soak the rice, dals and fenugreek seeds in water in separate vessels for 2 hours. Drain and combine this with asafoetida while adding enough water and blend in a mixer to a smooth paste. Add the green chillies, ginger, coriander, salt and little water as required and mix well. Heat a non-stick pan and grease it lightly with oil. Spread 2 tablespoons of the batter to form an adai (just like dosa). Cook on both sides till golden brown using a little oil. Serve hot with tomato chutney.
