TAMARIND DOSA

TAMARIND DOSA:

INGREDIENTS:

Boiled rice  1  cup

Grated coconut  1/2  cup (or a little more)

Thick tamarind extract  3  tbsp

Jaggery  2  tbsp

Red chillies  2

Bengal gram  1  tbsp

Curry leaves  A few

Salt

Mustard seeds  1  tsp

Asafoetida  1/4  tsp

PREPARATION METHOD:

Wash and soak boiled rice for an hour  in water.

Soak bengal gram in water for an hour.

Grind rice along with coconut, curry leaves, jaggery, red chillies and salt.

Add tamarind extract to the batter and season it with mustard seeds and asafoetida.

Add soaked bengal gram and mix well.

The batter should be little thicker than rava dosa batter.

Make dosa and cook it in medium heat and sprinkle a spoon of oil.

Flip the dosa and cook in medium heat.

Serve hot with honey or any pickle.

PS:  As we add coconut, dosa should be cooked a little longer time.

So cooking in medium flame is better.

As the dosa contains all tastes, no need of any side dish.
