Pesarattu

Here comes another andhra special recipe 'Pesarattu".Traditional Ginger chutney is the perfect combo for this.But i somehow don't like adding jaggery to chutney items.So i did hot ginger-coconut chutney as the side-dish.

Ingredients:

1.Moong dhal/Whole Green gram.........1 cup

2.Rice......2 tbsp

3.Cumin............1 tsp

4.Red chillies........3 to 5

5.Salt to taste

6.Corainder leaves....a few

Procedure:

1.Soak Moong dhal for 4 hours (if it is green gram,soak it for 8 hours).Wash it and grind it along with rice,cumin,red chillies and salt to a paste with adequate water.

2.Add chopped coriander leaves to the batter.

3.Heat a kadai,grease with oil and water,spread the batter like dosa,apply oil on both the sides.Toast it well on both sides and serve hot with chutney or simply with jaggery powder.

Note:Here i've used moong dhal,but whole green gram is the best choice as it has more fiber-good for health,try sprouted ones!

Adding chopped onion and grated carrot will add special taste and flavour to the recipe :)
