This is one of the healthiest dose/pan cake you can ever eat. Rich in protein and low fat, which makes it a good breakfast or a snack for the kids. Kids generally love to eat dose varieties, this will certainly give them more nourishment than the rest of them. This is also a gluten free pan cake. There are many different recipes to make these doses, i like to make 'em this way.
Ingredients:
1. Split yellow lentil (Toor dal) - 1 cup
2.Split Green gram (Moong dal) - 1/2 cup
3. Split Chick Peas (Channa dal) - 1/2 cup
4. Raw rice - 1 cup
5. Ginger - 1 inch piece or 1 tbsp paste
6. Whole black pepper - about 1 tsp
7. Dry red chilli - 4 to 5, (if you don't have it on hand, please use cayenne/chilli powder about 1 to 2 tsp, depending on how hot you would want it)
8. Asafoetida - a pinch or two.
9.Salt to taste
10. Finely chopped onions for garnish.
Method:
1. Soak rice, toor, moong, channa dal, balck pepper, dry red chilli for 6 to 8 hours. Do not use the chilli/cayenne powders to soak.
2. Grind the soaked dals and rice with ginger piece smoothly to pan cake batter consistancy.
3. Add salt, asafoetida and chilli/cayenne powder if not using dry chilli to the batter mix well and the dough is ready to be made into pan cakes.
4. To make the pan cakes, heat a pan, preferably non-stick so you can use less oil. pour the batter and spread it around the pan in circular motion starting from center. Pour a few drops of oil around the pan cake and wait till the lower side gets cooked. Flip the pan cake and cook for a few seconds. If you are using chopped onions, drizzle them on the batter as soon as you spread the batter on the pan.
You can serve it with any kind of chutney/ketchup or pudi.
