Adai Recipe

Written By Angela Steffi on Wednesday, December 28, 2016 | 11:35:00 PM

Adai is a traditional recipe of Tamil Nadu made will dal and rice. This recipe is very easy and simple to make all we need is dal , rice and a very few ingredients. In most of the hotels they add 2 portions of rice to make it cost effective but I have used equal quantities of rice and lentils to make it more nutritious. We can also play with ratios and make it taste according to your taste preference. my standard ratio is 1:1:1:1 with this ratio i can assure that we can make crispy and delicious Adai Dosai every time.
This recipe makes around 15 dosa and the best companion for this adai is Avial and coconut chutney. This recipe is packed minerals and nutrients which is required for our day-to-day activities.
