Kambu Dosa Without Rice | Traditional Pearl Millet Dosa Recipe | கம்பு தோசை

 

Ingredients

• 1 cup Kambu (Pearl Millet)
• ¼ cup Urad Dal
• 1 teaspoon Fenugreek Seeds
• Salt to taste
• Water as required

Method

Step 1: Soaking

Wash the kambu separately. Wash the urad dal and fenugreek seeds together. Soak both for 6 to 8 hours.

Step 2: Grinding Urad Dal

Grind the soaked urad dal and fenugreek seeds together until the batter becomes smooth and fluffy. Transfer it to a large bowl.

Step 3: Grinding Kambu

Grind the soaked kambu in a mixer to a smooth batter, adding water as needed.

Step 4: Mixing

Add the kambu(Pearl Millet) batter to the urad dal batter. Add salt and mix well using your hand.

Step 5: Fermentation

Cover and leave the batter to ferment overnight or for 8–10 hours.

Step 6: Making Kambu Dosa

Heat a dosa tawa and lightly grease it. Pour a ladle of batter and spread it in a circular motion. Drizzle a little oil around the edges and cook until golden brown.

Serve hot with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, or sambar.

My Kitchen Tip

Mixing the batter by hand helps promote better fermentation and gives softer, tastier dosas.
