MASALA NEERU DOSA

(SPICY RICE CREPE)
































Rice -- 1/2 cup

Oil -- 1 teaspoon
Split black gram (without the husk)(Urad dal) -- 3 teaspoons
Coriander seeds -- 1 1/2 teaspoons
Cumin seeds -- 3/4 teaspoon
Sesame seeds -- 1/2 teaspoon (optional)
Red chillies -- 5-6 broken

Onion -- 3 (medium)(chopped finely)
salt to taste
Oil for greasing



Soak rice for 5-6 hours.

Heat oil in a small pan and roast the black gram until golden brown. Add coriander seeds, cumin seeds and red chillies and fry on low flame for a couple of minutes. Finally add the sesame seeds fry until it starts spluttering. Turn off the heat and let it cool.

Run the fried spices in a food processor to make a powder(need not be smooth). Now add the soaked rice and make a very smooth paste with little water.

Add salt and water (around 1 1/2 cup water).

Add the chopped onion and make dosas as in neeru dosa

Add a little oil on top (calorie conscious people can skip this step!) and cook it on slow flame for a couple of minutes.

Serve it hot with coconut chutney.
