Moong Dal Dosa

Moong Dal Dosa

Moong Dal Dosa or pesrattu is a popular breakfast dish of Andhra Pradesh. You don’t have to keep it for fermenting like the normal dosa after grinding. Using the whole moong dal creates air pocket in the batter. It goes well with coconut chutney or inchy curry. With the  amount given here you can make 12 dosas.

• Shallots -2
• Cumin -1/2 tsp.
• Salt to taste

 

Method
