Bajra Dosai

#BajraDosai  #KambuDosai : #Bajra is called #Pearlmillet in English. It is known as #kambu in Tamil. In market we get bajra flour, broken bajra and bajra grain. Porridge and Pongal can be prepared from broken bajra. Bajra grain can be cooked like rice and  taken with sambar. I usually prepare #dosai with bajra flour combining with whole wheat flour.
Here let me present you the method of preparing dosai from bajra flour.  The given ingredients are enough to make approximately 8 dosas.

Ingredients :
To  prepare batter :

Idly or Dosai batter                                  : 1/2 Cup

Whole Wheat flour                                   : 1/2 Cup
Bajra flour                                                : 1 Cup
Salt                                                           : 3/4 Tsp

To add to batter :
Curry leaves                                             : 6 to 8
Green chilly nicely chopped                       : 1 Tsp ( optional )
Onion nicely chopped                                : 3 Tsp ( can take more also )
Cumin seeds                                              : 1 Tsp

To make Dosai :
Dosai tawa either iron or non stick.
Oil required quantity.

Method :
Take all the ingredients to prepare batter in a vessel.
Mix well adding 1 to 1 1/2 cup of water.
The batter should be watery and if needed add some more water.
Now add all the ingredients given above to the batter.

Keep the prepared batter aside for half an hour.
After half an hour place a tawa on medium fire.
Spread oil over the surface of the tawa.
When tawa becomes hot, make dosai.
With the help of a ladle start pouring batter slowly from near the rim of the tawa to the centre circularly.

Add drops of oil over and around the rim of dosai.
When it turns golden color along the edges flip other side to cook.

Transfer onto a serving plate.

Enjoy with coconut chutney or sambar or tomato garlic chutney.
