Paruppu Adai/Lentils Dosa





This is pretty similar like Dosa but since its made of dal, I can say its rich in protein.

Things we need
Idli Rice/ Puzungal aruci (in tamil) - 2 cups
Toor dal - 1/2 cup
Urad dal- 1/2 cup
Channa Dal-1/2 cup
Red chillies -5
Asafoetida
Salt
Green Chillies -4
Corriander leaves
Curry leaves
Grated Coconut - 3 spoons

Wash & Soak the rice & the lentils together for 3 hrs. Then grind salt, red chillies, green chilles, asafoetida, the soaked dals & rice, Salt . Grind them coarsly. Then add the coconut, chopped corriander & curry leaves. the batter is ready

Then in a tava/skillet, take 2 ladle full of batter, spread them around like one would do for a dosa. Add a little oil around. When one side of it is done, turn it over to get the other side cooked.
Its done. It is served best with Avial. some like it well with just jaggery. Even Coconut chutney would do good.
Chopped onions can be added to the batter too.
