Hi. Namaskar. How are you? Hope all are doing good. Here all of us are fine.
Hope all are done with their Onam celebrations and are out of its hangover
Now we are back to our normal routine. I am showing an Andra recipe of Pesarattu dosa
Its made of moong dal. Its a very healthy dosa. All of you do try it out.
Dont forget to send your feedback, like and share the video, subscribe if you havent too
So without any delay lets see how to make our tasty Pesarattu now
Noe lets begin to make our Andhra recipe for today. We need moong dal for that.
Usually this is what we use in whole. If you dont have this you can use the split one.s
But to get the colour, its better to use the green ones.
Clean the dal well and then soak it. I have taken 1 glass moong dal here.
You can use any glass you have. But use the same glass to take half cup rice.
I am using the normal raw rice today. You can use masoori, sona poni or idly rice too.
Just make the ratiois 1:1/2. I have soaked this last night.
Wash it well and then soak it. I used white rice too and its well soaked
If you have forgotten to soak it at night, then soak it for 4 hours during the day and then use
Do not soak it for too long. The smell changes. If you are not using it after 4 hours, just keep it in the fridge.
Grind it when needed. This is a dosa that can be made on the spot.
You dont have to ferment it.
Even if you ferment it, its ok. But I make it instant.
Lets add some more items to this before grinding.
First we need a small piece of ginger.
4 green chillies according to the spice you want.
I have taken 4 medium sized green chillies.
Next we need some cumin seeds, curry leaes and some salt. Lets grind all these together
Take the jar of the mixi and grind this in 2-3 batches.
Do not grind it very loose. Add little water in the beginning and then grind
Add the rice and the moong dal together to grind. Add the cumin seeds too
I am adding just a pinch of cumin seeds here
I dont like too much of cumin seeds flavour. If you dont have whole cumin seeds, add its powder
If its powder add 1/2tsp cumin seeds powder. If you want you can avoid cumin seeds too
Add chopped ginger, green chillies also to this. Grind this well in the first batch.
I had soaked these in good water. So I am using the same water to grind
I washed the dal and rice first and then soaked it in good water. This water can be used for grinding
Grind this using little water. Let me grind it and come
I added salt and grinded the whole with 1/2 glass water to this consistency.
Do not add too much of water in the beginning itself.
Let me taste and see. Its salty enough, spicy and everything is perfect
Now lets begin to make our dosas. You can close and make it after 2 hours if you want
Or make it then and there. I am making it now itself. Heat a pan. I am using Tefal non stick pan
Many ask me about this. I bought this online. Once it becomes medium hot, pour the batter and make dosas
Either you can make thick dosas or thin dosas. Its upto you.
If you want crispy dosas, add more of rice. As the rice reduces, it turns out to become soft
If you want crispy dosas, you can increase the ratio to 1:1. It depends on your likes
You can change the ratios as you like. I am making thin dosas now.
You can use ghee or gingelly oil over it. Even if you dont use both its ok.
If you are using an iron pan, dont forget to spread some oil first over it.
Only then pour the batter on the pan. Else it will stick to the bottom. Now the pan is hot.
Dont let it become very hot. Then the dosa will stick to the bottom and the we wont be able to spread it
I am pouring little batter and spreading it thin. You can make as you like.
Now cook this on low flame. Once it begins to get crisp sprinkle some ghee or gingelly oil
I will be making it more thin next time. Once the colour changes, brush some oil over it.
You can use a spoon or a brush like this. If you are health conscious, then dont use any oil.
This dosa is very healthy. I dont know if all will like it. You can surely make it once in a while.
There is a special ginger chutney to be had with this. I didnt have ginger with me. Shall show another day
Its somewhat like our injipuli. I have tried it out once.
I have been wanting to show this dosa since long. I make this often here
I follow the recipe from Wah Chef! If you want it to become golden in colour, cook in with patience
I have grinded this batter very finely without any grainy texture in it.
You can make a filling and eat it like masala dosa.
Once it gets well cooked, it begins to leave from the sides. Spicy chutney is the best along with this.
I love spicy tomato chutney along with this. You can use any chutney you like.
Now its well cooked. You dont have to turn this over since both the sides are well cooked.
If you want you can turn it over. But I am not doing it. I am just rolling it like this.
Lets make the next dosa. Before that wipe the pan with a wet cloth. The pan shouldnt be too hot
If the pan is very hot, the batter will stick to the pan. So always be careful with this.
You can either sprinkle water on the pan or wipe using a wet cloth like this.
Again place on low flame and pour the batter when its medium hot.
Spread it. When the colour changes, sprinkle ghee or oil over it.
Lets make all the dosas like this. You can even store the rest of the batter in the fridge.
I am going to serve tomato chutney and coconut chutney with this. You can make any you like
I shall come back after taking pictures and then taste it.
I have taken photos and come. Now lets taste our dosa
I am going to have this with tomato chutney and white coconut chutney. Their recipes are already uploaded
I like tomato chutney more with this than coconut chutney. Its awesome
All of you do try this out and dont forget to send me your feedback
Its very easy to make and healthy to have. See you with my next reicpe. Thank you.
Spread oil over it.
Maintain the heat always. Never cook this on high flame.
It will turn brown fast and wont get cooked.
So be careful on that. Its a healthy version. My son didnt like it much. But he loved the chutney
I shall show the chutney another day
