Dosa with Idli-batter


1 cup Urad dal
1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds
4 cups Boiled rice
1 cup Raw rice

Add fenugreek to the urad dal and mix the raw rice and boiled rice. Soak them separately over night.

Grind urad dal and the rice mix to a smooth batter. This should be done separately, once rice and urad dal mixes, texture of the batter will change.

Then they can be mixed together, add salt and mix well and set aside to ferment for 6 - 8 hrs. Yeast or cooking soda can be added for fermentation. Keep in a warm place or in the oven.

Water can be added to the batter as required to make dosa.

Grease a dosa pan with oil and pour the batter spreading evenly with the ladle.
Add a tsp of oil so that dosa can be removed easily. Turn the other side and let roast.

Same batter can be used to make uttappam. Pour the batter a little thick on the skillet sprinkle chopped onion, green chili and ginger on the batter.

Serve it hot with chutney.
