Moong dal dosa with Upma (Pesarattu Upma)
Ingredients:
Moong dal: 2 cups
Chillies : 3 to 4
Jeera: tsp
Ginger: an inch
Soak moong dal overnight and grind it the next day with chillies, jeera and ginger.
My sis suggested to use sprouts which are quite healthy so this time, I soaked overnight and drainded the water out and left for couple of hrs and then grind it.
Upma:
Ingredients:
Semolina: 2 cups
Onion: 1 cut into small pieces
Chillies: 2
Curry leaves: 2 sprigs
Urid dal, chana dal, mustard seeds: 1 tsp
Fry urid dal, chana dal and mustard seeds in oil until mustard seeds start to splutter, add curryleaves, onion and chillies and fry for some time.
Add salt and 2 cups of water.
As soon as the water starts boiling, add semolina and keep on missing it in the water, if u don’t mix then u get lumps so make sure to mix through out.
Cook for few min and that’s it really, u’r tasty upma is ready.
Serve hot with coconut chutney, ginger and sambhar.
This was a hit this weekend when friends were around. Found time to actually take couple of pics before serving them.

I didn’t know moongdal can be used to make dosas. Cool! Will try it soon.
Is this the whole moong dal because the one I bought from the Indian store looks yellow.

One more question..The batter doesn’t need to be fermented?

Hai gina
thank you for looking at my recipes.Yes they are whole moong dal(green one), we can use the yellow moong as well but these dosas are usually made wih whole moong and moreover a healthy option u know and there is no need to ferment the batter, if i have time i leave for couple of hrs or else make them straight after grinding.
