Multigrain Dosas

My mother has been making multigrain Dosas for years. I recently tried a version of my own that gave up white rice entirely. Here it is:


Ingredients:

1/2 cup urad dhal
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup cooked brown rice
1/2 cup millet flour (ragi)
Salt to taste

1) soak urad dhal in water for at least four hours (ideally overnight)
2) drain and rinse urad dhal. 
3) place urad dhal and remaining ingredients in a blender or grinder. Add about 1/2 cup water. Grind till smooth. 
4) place batter in a bowl and let stand, covered, for 12 hours, until fermented. Resulting batter should smell slightly sour and may have a few bubbles. 
5) make dosas by pouring a small quantity on a hot, lightly oiled griddle and spreading batter to a thin consistency. Roast Dosas for a few minutes, then turn over and roast for a few more minutes to ensure thorough cooking. Resulting Dosas should be golden brown.
