Menthe dosa| Very healthy breakfast|ಮೆಂತೆ ದೋಸೆ| fenugreek dosa/Mangalore Traditional Recipe

Описание: Fenugreek Dosa, also known as Methi Dosa, is a nutritious and mildly spiced South Indian dosa featuring fenugreek (methi) seeds, which add a unique, slightly bitter flavor balanced by the naturally fermented batter. The fenugreek seeds lend a golden hue to the dosa, along with a hint of earthy warmth and a subtle nuttiness, enhancing both its taste and health benefits. Known for aiding digestion and controlling blood sugar levels, fenugreek makes this dosa a wholesome breakfast option. The dosa pairs wonderfully with coconut chutney, sambar, or a dollop of ghee, making it a delightful, savory treat.

Ingredients
2 cups raw rice
2 tbsp fenugreek seeds (methi seeds)
1/2 cup thin Poha
Salt, to taste
Water (for soaking and grinding)

Instructions
Step 1: Soak the Ingredients
Rinse the Rice and Fenugreek seeds: Rinse rice and fenugreek seeds thoroughly in water.
Soak Together: In a bowl, combine rice and fenugreek seeds. Soak in enough water for about 4–6 hours or overnight.
Step 2: Grind the Batter
Drain and Grind: After soaking, drain the water and grind the rice, and fenugreek seeds into a smooth batter. Add water gradually to achieve a thick, smooth, and pourable consistency.
Add Salt: Add salt to taste and mix well.
Step 3: Ferment the Batter
Ferment Overnight: Cover the batter and let it ferment in a warm place for 8–12 hours or overnight until it rises and becomes slightly bubbly.
Step 4: Prepare and Cook the Dosas
Heat the Pan: Heat a dosa tawa or non-stick pan on medium heat.
Spread the Batter: Pour a ladleful of batter onto the pan and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
Cook the Dosa: Cook for about 1–2 minutes until the bottom turns golden and crispy.
Flip (optional): You can flip the dosa to cook the other side briefly, though traditionally only one side is cooked.
Serve Hot: Serve the fenugreek dosa hot with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, or sambar.
Tips
Crispier Dosas: For extra crispy dosas, keep the batter slightly thicker and cook on medium-high heat.
Adjusting the Fermentation: In cooler climates, keep the batter in a warm spot, or add a pinch of sugar to help with fermentation.
Enjoy your healthy, flavorful fenugreek dosa!
