This blog is actually not meant for recipies. But since I typed the recipies for my friends, I thought it might help someone else also. So here are 2 tasty recipies.

Pesrette:

payatham paruppu (Tamil)/ Hesaru Kaallu (kannada) – 2 cups (soaked overnight)
ulundhu (Tamil)/ Urad dal (Hindi) – ½ Cup (soaked overnight)
Pachai arusi (Tamil)/ Rice – ½ Cup (soaked overnight)
Green chilli pieces

Grind the rice in the grinder. Add the payatham paruppu and ulundhu and grind till coarse paste. Add the chilli pieces and salt while grinding.
Prepare like dosa.

Adai:
Kadalai paruppu (Tamil)/ kadle bele (kannada) – 1Cup
Thoram paruppu (Tamil)/ Thuvar dal (Hindi)/ Thogre bele (kannada) – ½ Cup
Ulundhu(Tamil)/ Urad dal (hindi)
Soak the above ingredients together for 3 to 4 hours.
Rice – 1 Cup – soak for 3 hours and grind first
Aval(Tamil)/ Beaten rice/ Poha(Hindi) – soak for ½ hour and grind it with the rice above
Add the rest of the ingredients and grind in grinder till you get a coarse paste. Add salt whie grinding. Chopped onions and green chillies can be added optionally to the paste after grinding.
Prepare dosa with the paste.

Alternatively:
Boiled rice (3 cups)+ ulundhu(1/2 cup) +thoram paruppu (1/2 cup)+ gram dal (1/2 cup)
Put everything together and soak for 5 to 6 hours. Add salt and red chilli while grinding. The paste can be coarse and not very smooth.
This can be used to prepare the dosa.
