OATS ADAI/OATS LENTIL PANCAKE

OATS ADAI/OATS LENTIL PANCAKE

 Today’s recipe is a healthy breakfast adai recipe made with oats.  Since it is made with oats and lentils, it can be called as oats adai or Oats lentil pancake ...

The method of preparing oats adai is very similar to that of normal adai recipe, except that oats is added instead of rice.

Oats adai is very easy to prepare.  There is no need of fermentation.  You just have to soak all the lentils for 2 hours, and then grind together with oats.  And as soon as the batter is ready, the adai can be made. I always love Indian style oats dishes like oats upma, oats dosa, oats adai, oats kozhukkattai, and many others.

This oats adai will not be very crisp like the normal adai we make, since I have used only oats and no rice.  But if you want crispy adai dosa, then you can also add one handful of rice while soaking lentils for adai.

We can add drumstick leaves, you can also replace it with vegetables or any other spinach variety.

Serve oats adai with coconut chutney, sambar, sugar, jaggery or with idli podi.  I love adai with coconut chutney etc...

AMRITSARI CHOLE MASALA/AMRITSARI CHANNA MASALA

AMRITSARI CHOLE MASALA/AMRITSARI CHANNA MASALA Amritsari Chole  are traditional Amritsar style spicy  Chole  Recipe made using freshly ground  chole  masala. The curry has a slightly darker hue due to tea bags that are used while boiling the  chole . This taste so delicious with battura or roti. I made some black tea, strained it and used that in this recipe. If you have those tea bags, throw few when cooking chana in the pressure cooker. The more tea bags you add the more black your chana will be. But don't use too much, else your chana will be bitter. Hope you will give this try and let me know how it turns out for you.
