Notes
-
If you use wet grinder to grind black gram lentils, then batter fluffs more and almost doubles in volume. If you don’t have one, you can still use mixer.
-
You can use store bought finger millet flour that is of any variety.
-
When you combine finger millet flour with lentil batter, ensure the batter is of right consistency to make dosa. If it’s not add some water.
-
It is not necessary to cook the other side of Dosa, if you prefer you can do too.
