Pesarattu is a popular South Indian breakfast dish made with green gram and rice batter. It is a nutritious and protein-packed dish that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This recipe combines the traditional flavors with a modern twist for a tasty meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole green gram (moong dal), soaked overnight
  • 1/2 cup raw rice, soaked
  • 2-3 green chilies
  • 1 inch piece of ginger
  • A handful of fresh coriander leaves
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil for cooking

Directions

  1. Drain the soaked green gram and rice, and blend them together with green chilies, ginger, and coriander leaves to a smooth batter. Add water if needed to get a thick pouring consistency.
  2. Heat a non-stick pan and pour a ladleful of batter on it. Spread it in a circular motion to make a thin dosa. Drizzle some oil on the sides and cook until crispy and golden brown.
  3. Flip and cook on the other side for a few seconds. Remove from heat and serve hot with chutney or sambar.
  4. Repeat the process with the remaining batter to make more pesarattu dosas.
  5. Enjoy your crispy and flavorful pesarattu for a wholesome breakfast or snack.
