Pesarattu Dosa

Both Ammas (Amma and MIL) use to prepare a variety of dosa with yellow moong dal and boiled rice. I never realized that was a modified version of pesarattu. One of my Telugu friends shared this pesarattu recipe, made with green moong dal. Tried Pesarattu with moong dal, after tasting this dosa we loved it, and added this dosa in our breakfast menu.

Pesarattu:

Preparation Time : 3 mins | Soaking Time : 4 hours | Cooking Time : 15 mins | Serves : 3

Recipe Category: Breakfast

Ingredients:

Whole moong dal/ green gram/moong bean – 1 cup

Boiled Rice (Idly Rice) –  2 tbsp

Green chillies – 2

Ginger – 1/2 inch piece

Coriander leaves- a handful

Hing – a generous pinch

Salt – as needed

Water – as required

Method:

• Soak Moong Dal overnight (or atleast for 8hrs in cold water or 4 hours in hot water). Rinse it well and drain the water. Grind it with boiled rice, ginger, green chillies, coriander leaves and required qty of water to a smooth dosa batter consistency

• Heat dosa skillet, take a ladle full of batter and spread it thin. Cook both sides. Serve it hot with any chutney. We had it with Tomato Chutney

 

My Notes:
