Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Moong dal (split green gram)
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 2 small Green chilies (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Ghee or oil for frying
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
Rinse the moong dal under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak it in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Drain the soaked moong dal and add it to a blender along with almond flour, eggs, water, grated ginger, chopped green chilies, cumin seeds, and salt.
Blend the mixture until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. The batter should be slightly runny. Adjust the consistency with more water if needed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a little ghee or oil using a paper towel.
Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the center of the pan and spread it outwards in circular motions to form a thin dosa.
Drizzle a little ghee or oil around the edges and cook until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the dosa and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is lightly browned.
Transfer the dosa to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Enjoy hot with your favorite keto-friendly chutney or yogurt.
