BARLEY DOSA

                                 

It's been long since I posted here.This photo has been in my draft along with Horse gram (kollu) curry for past 7-8 months.

   Tried this when my dad come here last October . His diet is bit different he takes barely with quinoa and vegetables as porridge  as lunch. Actually quite east to cook for him.But one day he asked if I can make dosai using barley like oats dosai I do usually.

  I was not sure since my thought was barley is glutinous and urad is sticky and their combination can't make thin crispy dosai,which I like.But my dad as usual was very encouraging and asked me to try . And to my surprise it came out crispy as I like and also was able to make soft ones like my dad likes.

So... This is the story for birth of this tasty healthy rice free dosai. It's same as my other rice free dosai Oats  , Hulled millet and Ragi dosai.

Ingredients:

Barley -3 cups

Urad dhal-1 cup

Salt-to taste 

Water-soak and grind

Method:

1) Soak barley and urad separately for 6 hrs. (I usually soak at night)

2)Grind them like dosa batter . Add salt and ferment .

Make dosa and enjoy.

Note: if the batter becomes sour u can not get thin dosai. Have not tried making dosa immediately  without fermenting like karamani dosai  .
