Instructions
Wash and soak the Dals and rice together for 6-8 hours along with the dry red chillies in minimum water.
Use the soaked water and grind the above to a smooth thick batter.
Add the add-ons and mix well. Keep it covered till slightly fermented for 2 hours ( you can use the batter without fermenting but the 2 hours helps in absorbing the flavours really well, so don’t skip this step)
Heat a cast iron tava. Mix the batter really well and pour a ladleful of this onto a thick adai kind of dosa in medium flame
Drizzle sesame oil around the dosa . Let it cook to a golden brown on both sides
The Adai is ready when it’s cooked and golden brown
