TriMillet Dosai
முத்தானிய தோசை
Ingredients:
Kodo Millet ( வரகு அரிசி) - 3 tbsp
Finger Millet ( கேழ்வரகு ) - 3 tbsp
Toor Dhal ( துவரம் பருப்பு ) - 2 tbsp
Channa Dhal ( கடலை பருப்பு ) - 2 tbsp
Onion ( பெரிய வெங்காயம்) - 2
Grated Coconut ( optional) ( துருவிய தேங்காய்) - 2 tbsp
Curry Leaves ( கறிவேப்பிலை) - 1 twig
Coriander Leaves ( கொத்தமல்லி தளை) - 2 twigs
Mustard Seeds ( கடுகு ) - 1/2 tsp
Split Urad Dhal ( உளுந்தம்பருப்பு ) - 1/2 tsp
Cumin Seeds ( சீரகம் ) - 1/2 tsp
Steps:
Clean and soak the three millets together for an hour. Soak the lentils, channa and toor dhal separately for half an hour. |
In a blender, grind the millets and red chili to a fine paste. Then add the soaked lentils and grind together. Add salt to taste. |
Peel and cut onions into small bite size and add to the batter. |
On a hot tawa, spread a laddle full of batter and cook on both sides until crisp. |
Serve the dosai with coconut chutney and idli podi. |
There are many brands of multi grain doasi mix available in the market. I have used and totally agree that it is of handy in this busy world. But making your own mix with whole grains has its unique taste and benefits.
You can try this recipe once a while,
The advantage is, millets soak very fast and can be grinded easily also. Freshly ground whole grain has its taste. Once tried, one would prefer this to the ready mix.
I have added lentils - channa dhal and Toor dhal. This makes up for the protein part of the dish and also gives crispness to the dosai. This is optional. You can stick to the millets alone.
Grated coconut , though optional, can be added to,get a nice flavour.
