Ingredients




1 cup Mung beans
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
1 tsp green chilli paste
2 green chillies finely chopped (optional)
250 - 275 ml of water
Salt to taste
oil

Preparation

1 Soak the mung beans in water (enough to cover them completely) for at least 3-4 hours. 2 Drain the water and add the beans to a blender. Add the ginger garlic paste and green chilli paste. Add 250 ml of water and blend. Add the remaining water if the consistency of the batter is too thick. Then add the salt and chopped chillies and combine well. 3 Heat a non stick griddle pan. Add a couple of drops of oil and spread it with a spatula. Lower the heat and pour a ladleful of mixture onto the centre of the pan. 4 Immediately start spreading the mixture in circular manner to get a round and thin dosa. Increase the heat and let the dosa cook for a couple of minutes. Flip the dosa and cook the other side.

About

If you wish to make dosa for dinner, I would suggest soaking the beans in the morning. If that isn't possible, 3-4 hours should be fine.The key thing is to get the consistency of the batter and the heat of the pan right. The batter should be thin enough to spread and if the pan gets too hot, reduce the heat and let it stand for sometime before putting the batter.
