    Thanks kancha. Your idea is good and healthy. @ Rabz: Add water to make consistency so as you can pour the batter and spread on tawa.

    How much water must I add to get the perfect dosa batter?

    I even added Brocoli while grinding the moong dal. It came out very well.

    To make it healthier, green moongs sprouts can also be used. Instead of putting rice flour or sooji, for every cup of dal one table spoon of raw rice can be soaked along with.
