Protein Dosa

This recipe is a quick dosa recipe which does not need any fermentation and with just few hours of soaking you end having crispy healthy dosa. You can add any legumes or lentils of your choice along with some veggies if you like and you have your crispy dosa ready. This recipe was adapted from  MasterchefMom, a blogger I follow. She has some amazing recipes. Lets see how its done. 
Step by Step images are updated below.  

Ingredients : 

1/4 cup Kabuli channa
1/4 cup Black channa
1/4 cup Whole Green moong
1/4 cup Urad dal
1/4 cp Tuvar Dal
1 cup rice (I used Ponni rice)
2 or 3 dried red chilli's
1 Onion chopped (Optional)
1" Ginger Chopped
1/2 cup corriander chopped (optional)
Salt to taste
Oil or ghee for making dosa's

Method:
  1. Wash all the legumes, lentils and rice together and soak for atleast 5 hours along with dry red chillies
  2. Once soaked, drain off the water and grind the soaked ingredients along with onion, ginger, coriander, into a smooth batter. Corriander and onion are optional. You can avoid if not using. 
  3. Adjust water quantity while grinding as you do for normal dosa. 
  4. Add salt, mix well and your Protein Dosa batter is now ready to be made.
  5. Heat your Pan or tava and when it is hot, start making the dosa. 
  6. Add Ghee or oil to 
  7. Its ready to eat. It goes well with sambhar and white coconut chutney.
Notes: 
  • I usually soak them in the night and grind them in the morning for breakfast since it doesn't need any fermentation. 5 hrs is all it needs to be soaked. 
  • I mix onions, corriander and curry leaves as well along with the other ingredients while grinding. You can avoid them and also use them as a topping separately.

Home-Made Nuts Powder

Home-Made Nuts powder is something which I have been making since Jeremy was a 9 month old. Initially to introduce nuts, I used to powder each nut separately (one day each) and mix with every food. As he grew older I realized he hates whole nuts especially Almonds and Pistachios. Cashews are still ok with him provided they are salted ones. But still he wasn't consuming much. Thats when I decided to continue making the essential and important nut powder. He hates the fact that nuts or chunky powder has been added and just rejects the whole meal even though its tasty and likes it. But this fine nut powder is a winner and I add it up in almost everything on a daily basis.  So this nut powder is perfect for fussy kid like mine or if you just wanna introduce nuts to your kids diet, this is a good solution. Its pretty simple and fuss free.   The powder is suitable for babies over 8 months, but before you feed this to your baby, make sure that baby has already tried the powdered vers...

Easy Sambar (without tamarind)

Sambar is a must in most south Indian families and like others even I have grown up having dosa- sambhar and chutney's. A Sambar is a lentil based vegetable stew or curry cooked with dal/lentils along with some veggies and some tamarind pulp. There are coconut based sambar as well and each region has its own sambar variation. In my house, we all prefer quick meals, but yet tasty. My mother who was a working lady would make elaborate meals only during holidays or special occasions. Rest all the meals would be quick yet very very tasty. This is one such sambar which my mom has taught me and is super quick.  This doesn't use tamarind like in a traditional sambar and gets its tangy flavour from tomatoes. Its quick, one pot sambar recipe. Lets dive in and see how its done: Ingredients: Serves 3 1/2 to 1 cup Tur Dal/ Yellow Lentils 2-3 tomatoes chopped (depending on size) 1/2 cup Veggies each of your choice cubed Turmeric powder A pinch of Asafoetida/ Hing 1/2 tsp chilli powder Salt ...
