Ingredients

• 1 cup Ragi (finger millet) flour
• 0.5 cup Urad dal (split black gram)
• 0.25 cup Moong dal (split green gram)
• 0.25 cup Chana dal (split chickpeas)
• 0.25 cup Quinoa
• 2 cups Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• as needed Oil

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the urad dal, moong dal, chana dal, and quinoa separately under running water until the water runs clear.

Step 2

Soak the urad dal, moong dal, chana dal, and quinoa in water for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Step 3

Drain the soaked ingredients and transfer them to a blender. Blend them together to form a smooth batter, adding water gradually as needed. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground dal and quinoa paste with ragi flour and salt. Add 1 cup of water and mix well to form a smooth batter. Ensure there are no lumps.

Step 5

Cover the batter and let it ferment in a warm place for about 8 hours or overnight.

Step 6

Once the batter is fermented, give it a gentle stir. The consistency should be of flowing consistency. Add water if necessary.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a few drops of oil.

Step 8

Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the hot skillet and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.

Step 9

Drizzle a few drops of oil around the edges of the dosa and cook until the edges start to lift and the underside is golden brown.

Step 10

Flip the dosa and cook for another minute or until the other side is cooked through.

Step 11

Remove from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 12

Serve hot with chutney or sambar.
