Pesarattu dosa is made with moong dal, making it healthy and nutritious. If you have soaked moong dal overnight, making dosa with its batter is a cakewalk. Here is how you can make it at home in just a few simple steps.

Ingredients

¾ inch ginger 1 cup whole moong dal Salt to taste 4 green chillies 1 teaspoon cumin seeds Ghee as required 1-2 tablespoons raw rice 2 chopped and fried onions 200 gm paneer

Step 1

Rinse moong dal and rice thoroughly and soak them for 6 hours at least. Drain the water and rinse the ingredients again.

Step 2

Add moong dal, rice, green chillies, cumin seeds, ginger, and salt to taste in a blender and make a coarse paste.

Step 3

Add water to maintain the consistency. It should be neither too dense nor too runny.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet and spread the batter on it. While it cooks, spread ghee on the edges.

Step 5

If you have nothing at home, grate paneer on top of the dosa, add fried onions, and sprinkle some red chilli powder.

Step 6

When the base has turned crispy, serve the dosa with sambar and chutney.
