Barley helps in weight loss but as it generates body heat, it is advisable to have it only twice or thrice a week. My friend gave me the recipe for this Barley Dosai and it came out very well.
Ingredients :
- Barley - 2 tea cups
- Urad - 1/2 tea cup
- Methi seeds - 1 tsp
- salt to taste
Procedure :-
- Soak Barley, Urad and methi seeds together for 5 to 6 hrs.
- Grind to nice paste. The batter will only give a coarse texture, but if you touch it, will be smooth & soft.
- Mix in required salt and let it ferment till it rise.
- Heat a Dosa Tawa, grease it
- Pour a laddle of batter and spread it
- apply few drops of oil on the sides
- cook it on low flame so that you get a crispy dosa of right colour
- When one side is done (golden brown), flip it and cook till the other side is also done
- Serve hot with chutney/sambar
Healthy dosa! Chutney looks spicy and yummy!
ReplyDeleteI add equal quantity of Barley and brown rice!
Yes, Mahi. Enjoyed the breakfast with this crispy dosai and spicy onion-tomato chutney and tiffin sambar. Brown rice is very good for health and you have made your dosai more nutritive. Think of trying brown rice next time. Do you add urad to it or just barley + brown rice?
