Ingredients

  • 1 cup Idli rice
  • 1.5 tbsp fenugreek seeds | Vendhayam
  • 3 tbsp poha | aval
  • 2 tbsp urad dal
  • Oil to make dosa

Instructions

  • Wash and soak Idli rice in a bowl.
  • In another bowl wash and soak fenugreek seeds, aval and urad dal.
  • Let this soak for 3-4 hours.
  • Drain the water and grind this into a smooth paste.
  • Do add water while grinding the batter.
  • Add water to the dosa batter consistency.
  • This can be done in mixie itself. If you are making in large quantity, you can grind in a wet grinder.
  • Take out and transfer to a vessel..
  • Add salt and mix well with your hands.
  • Let this ferment for 5-6 hours.
  • Also fermentation time depends on the weather conditions.
  • Once it is fermented, mix well and star making dosas.
  • Ensure the dosa pan is hot.
  • We can’t make crispy dosas with this batter.
  • It will be a soft dosa like set dosai.
  • Drizzle oil on the sides.
  • Once it cooked on one side, flip it over.
  • Cook and take out from the pan.
  • Repeat this for the rest of the batter.
  • Vendhaya dosa pairs well with any spicy chutney.
  • We enjoyed with molaga chutney.
  • Puli milagai tastes well with this.

Notes

1. This vendhaya dosa batter can be stored for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.
2. Some of my relatives add 1-2 tbsp of toor dal the vendhaya dosa batter while soaking it.
