Ingredients

Instructions

  • Soak oats, quinoa, urad dal, and moong dal in water for 4 hours.
    1 cup Quinoa, 1 cup Oats, ½ cup urad dal, ¼ cup moong dal
  • Drain the water and grind all the ingredients to a smooth batter in a large bowl.
  • Add water as needed while grinding, as you want the consistency to be similar to regular dosa batter - neither too thick nor too thin.
    1½ cup water
  • Add salt to taste and mix well.
    Salt to taste
  • Heat a nonstick griddle or cast iron griddle on medium heat and add a few drops of oil. Pour a ladleful of quinoa dosa batter.
  • Using the back of the ladle, spread the batter in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
  • Cook until golden brown over medium-low heat on one side, then flip and cook for another minute.
  • Place it on the plate and repeat the process for the remaining batter.
  • Serve this healthy dosa with coconut chutney and sambar.

Notes

  • Make sure to rinse and drain the quinoa, oats, and lentils before soaking them. This helps remove any residue or impurities.
  • Ensure your pan is adequately heated to the right temperature before you start. The batter should sizzle as soon as it hits the pan. 
  • For a crispier dosa, add ½ cup of rice flour to the batter.
  • You can also add some chopped onions and green chilies to the batter for an extra kick of flavor.
  • Leftover dosa batter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making it a convenient option for busy mornings. Be sure to thaw it to room temperature before using it to prepare dosa.
