Pesarattu

Celebrating my 250th post with an Andhra breakfast recipe using whole green gram dhal.

INGREDIENTS:

Whole green gram - 1 cup
Raw rice - 1cup
Green chillies - 3
Ginger - 1/2" piece
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp.
Coriander leaves - a handful
Curry leaves - a sprig
Onion - 1 (optional)
Hing
Salt - as per taste
Oil - for drizzling

METHOD:

Wash and soak green gram dhal and rice in water overnight. Drain the water completely and grind it coarsely( like adai batter) alongwith green chillies, coriander leaves, ginger and cumin seeds. Mix in the salt, chopped onions and curry leaves.

Heat a tawa, spread the batter, drizzle oil on sides, and when done flip it to the other side. Again drizzle oil on sides and cook till crispy and golden brown. Serve hot with any chutney. As I had some sambhar, I did not make any chutney.
