Method

To a wide bowl, add kadalai paruppu/Bengal gram dal, thoor dal, urad dal, moong dal, raw rice and boiled rice.

Add enough water and wash thoroughly 2-3 times and drain the water.

Add fresh water and soak for about 5-6 hours. Soak the dry red chillies with water for at least 30-40 minutes.

Add the soaked dal, soaked red chillies, fennel seeds, black pepper, salt to the mixer and grind it to a coarse paste with required water.

Add required water, mix thoroughly and adjust the consistency.

Add turmeric powder, asafoetida/hing, mix thoroughly and keep it aside.

Chop everything and keep it ready.

Heat 3 tsp of oil in a pan, add chopped onions, garlic, ginger, green chillies, curry leaves and little salt.

Saute well until they turn translucent.

At this stage add the chopped coconut, mix really well and switch off the stove. Let it cool down.

Add the onion mixture to the ground dal batter. Mix really well. The batter is ready to make adai/adai dosai.

Heat dosai tawa, pour a ladle of batter and spread it like dosai.

Drizzle little oil all around and cook the adai on both the sides evenly.

Delicious and healthy Adai/Adai Dosai is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it hot with Avial/Coriander Chutney or even with  just Jaggery/Vellam.

Suggestions:

• Make sure the ingredients in table II are finely chopped. 
• The batter must be coarse and not fine.
• You need not ferment the batter, make it immediately after you grind it. The rest of the batter can be refrigerated for the next day.
