Adai :
Adai is made of lentil and rice. It's rich in protein.

Ingredients : 

For Seasoning :
Onion - 1/2 medium size
Curry leaves  - few
Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
Urad dhal - 2 tsp
Channa dhal - 2 tsp
Hing a pinch

To grind :
Ginger -1 inch
Garlic - 2 pods
Red chilli - 5 or to taste

Batter :
Idli rice - 1.5 cup
Toor dhal -1/2 cup
Moon dhal - 1/2 cup

Method :

1. Soak rice, dhal and red chili for 4 hours.
2. Take the red chilli and grind it with ginger garlic in a mixer.
3. Grind rice and dhal in a wet grinder. Grind it until you get a coarse batter.
4. Add the ginger garlic, red chili paste to the batter and give it a quick grind.
5. In a pan add 1 tsp oil. When it is hot, add mustard seeds, urad dhal, channa dhal, curry leaves
   and chopped onion and fry it .
6. Let it cool. Add it to the batter.
7. Make dosa in a dosa pan.

Healthy breakfast is ready. It's a change from usual dosa.
Doesn't need much of planing like dosa.

Enjoy the joy of cooking.

Note :
If you want thick adai, make the batter little thick in consistency.
I like it in dosa consistency.
