Quick Oatmeal Dosa Recipe Video
A simple recipe using only oats and urad dal (no rice) also quick and handy for those busy days when you are on the run, put together- a perfect way to start the day .
Ingredients
Oats - 1/2 cup (old fashioned rolled oats works the best)
Urad dal - 1/4 cup (A ratio of 2:1)
Salt - to taste
Water
Oil - if desired to spray over the dosa
Directions
MAKING
1. In a wet grinder combine together the oats and urad dal and grind into a powder without any grits
2. Store the mix in a dry, clean air tight container, like you would any other flour. This holds good for weeks.
3. When ready to make the dosa, take about 1/4 cup of the powder; add 1/4 tsp of salt and 3/4 cup of water little by little. The consistency should be that of a regular dosa batter. Make sure there are no lumps as urad dal has the tendency to form lumps. Use a wire whisk to get a smooth paste.
FINALIZING
4. Heat a griddle to smoking point, then reduce the heat.
5. Pour and spread batter with back of the spoon or a small flat bottomed bowl.
6. Cook until the bottom is dry and lightly browned in specks, greasing with oil if desired.
7. Flip if desired and cook other side.
SERVING
8. Serve with your choice of condiment.

Editors Review
For most south Indians who are on a diet, giving up their favorite rice dosa and having oat porridge for breakfast can be quite a challenge. Why not make an instant oat dosa? Surely oats can be enjoyed in this form, as a variation to the porridge. This is a heart friendly dosa, perfect for heart patients and those with high cholesterol. It is also a great way to get kids to eat oats!Chef
