Healthier version of the southern Indian staple

Preparation

Method

  • Wash the soaked black urad dal and grind it to thick semi solid paste and empty into a big bowl.
  • Grind the millets with a little water coarsely. Add it to the bowl.
  • Add salt and mix well. Keep it to ferment in a warm place for eight hours.
  • Heat a pan and roast cumin seeds, curry leaves, black pepper and hing. Add this seasoning into the dough once the dough is fermented. Mix well.
