Adai , South Indian Adai Dosa, how to prepare no fermentation mixed lentils spicy dosa

Today's recipe is Adai  || South Indian Adai Dosa || Mixed lentils Dosa, it is very protein rich, tasty, popular  breakfast recipe from Tamil Nadu and other areas of South India. It is prepared by soaking different lentils and grinding with spicies. We add lentils like urad dal, toor dal, chana dal, rice .. spices like red chilli , ginger etc.. is not it protein rich dosa ??  We can have it as breakfast or evening snack or even for dinner. For me i can have it in lunch time too when i am alone at home. We can have this with Coconut Chutney, Pudina coconut chutney, Green chutney, onion tomato chutney.. i even love to have as it is without any chutney too, as it is spicy and tasty without chutney too, today i had it with roasted cdal + coconut  chutney(putnala kobari pachadi).

 My mom add fresh coconut while grinding adai batter as it gives good taste. We have to soak lentils for minimum 3 hrs, for morning breakfast i soak it overnight. No need to ferment the batter, we have to prepare dosa's on the same day, or store it in refrigerator for next day not more than that.  I prefer to dosa's for 1 day and with left over batter i prepare panniyaram's (appe, ponganallu).

Ragi munagakku rotte, Ragi Drumstick leaf Thalipeeth using grated carrot

Today's recipe Ragi drumstick leaf Thalipeeth using grated carrot which is very tasty and healthy. It is also known as Ragi pindi munagakku rotte in Telugu, Ragi muranga keerai adai in Tamil and Ragi nugge yele Thalipeeth in kannada. Thalipittu / Thalipeeth is famous Karnataka breakfast. It is very crispy, tasty power packed with lots of minerals, proteins. We can have it with any pickles or chutney's or simply with curd. I love to have it with hung curd 😋. We can also have it as evening snacks for kids after coming home. 

 The ingredients like drumstick leafs, grated carrot.. which we add in it are all healthy. We also add fresh grated coconut or small coconut pieces which adds good crunchy taste to thalipittu and also good for health. Adding  grated carrot is optional but to make it protein rich I add it.
