Adai Dosai

Adai, the lentil dosa is crispy, yummy & healthy one. The rice & lentils along with chilli & pepper is soaked together. A nice flavourful dosa variety. Easy to prepare & delicious to eat.

The texture varies as some grind it to nice paste and some leave it look little coarse. So you can try the one which you taste the best.

  1. Boiled Rice - 2 tea cups
  2. Tuvar Dhal + Gram Dhal + Urad dhal - 1/2 tea cup (together)
  3. Groundnut - 2 tbsp (optional)
  4. Peppercorn - 1 tsp
  5. Red Chilli - 6 nos. (or as per taste)
  6. Salt to taste
  7. Curry leaves
  8. Hing Powder - 1/4 tsp
  9. Methi seeds - 1 tsp

  • Soak rice, groundnut & dhals together for 2 hrs. 
  • Grind it little coarse along with curry leaves, peppercorn, redchilli, salt and hing powder. Mix well
  • You can ferment the batter for 6 hours & use or just let it stand for 30 min and go ahead preparing the adai dosai.
  • Heat a Tawa, pour a laddle of batter and spread it like dosai.

  2. I always prefer adai over dosas as these are much more nutritious..and I add loads of daal as compared to rice...your adai is looking super crisp.
