Ada

Who doesn't like Dosa for Breakfast ? (especially if you are from South India) However the effort and time involved in preparing regular dosa is more. Today I happened to find a dish - a variety of Dosa which doesn't require any fermentation process. It is called Ada (got to know that it is a Tamil dish).

Lets start the process...

Ingredients:

  1. Rice (4 cups)
  2. Urad Dal (1 cup)
  3. Chana dal (1 cup)
  4. Moong Dal (1/2 cup)
  5. Toor Dal (1/2 cup)
  6. Methi seeds (1/2 tea spoon)
  7. Poha thick (1 cup)
  8. Salt


Steps

  1. Soak above ingredients in a vessel for around 6 hours or so.
  2. Once soaking process is done, drain and Grind it (consistency should be similar to regular Dosa batter)
  3. Add Salt accordingly and mix it well.
  4. As I said earlier, no fermentation is required, so you can prepare dosas the moment the batter is ready.
  5. Serve with Chutney and it would be great :)




This is the basic version of Ada, however you can also you can add few more ingredients while grinding - ginger, green chillies, Hing, grated coconut etc)
