Protein Dosa....Super healthy

Idli rice, blackgram ( urd dal) and fenugreek seeds are commonly used in preparing the dosa batter.

In this protein dosa recipe, lentils (grams) are also used to enhance the protein in it. Good for all ages.
Ingredients 
Raw rice ( pachari) 11/2 cups,
Parboiled rice ( puzhukkalari) 1/2 cup,
Blackgram 1/2 cup,
Bengal gram (kadala) , green gram ( cherupayar), yellow split peas ( peas parippu) 1/4 cup each,
Fenugreek seeds 2 tbsp.,
Add all the ingredients in a bowl, wash it thoroughly in water thrice, and soak for 6 hours.  Drain out the water and grind it in a grinder or mixie. Add soaked 7 soaked red chilli and 2 tsp. cumin seeds. Grind to a smooth batter. No need to ferment this batter. After 2 hours dosa can be made. The leftover batter if any can be refrigerated for 2-3 days maximum and use. Heat a dosa tawa and prepare the dosa. Take a ladleful batter, pour on the tawa and circle with the bottom of the ladle. When the bubbles appeared blast out the bottom is cooked, flip over and cook the other side. Drizzle a little sesame oil on the dosa before flipping. It gives the nice flavour to the dosa. 
Serve with coconut chutney. Since the batter is not fermented, adding curd to the chutney will give it a sour taste. That is optional.
