Authentic Pesarattu Dosa with Lentils and Spices
Ingredients
- 250g green lentils
- fenugreek (optional)
- cumin (optional)
- ginger (optional)
- chilies (optional)
- water
Preparation
Clean and discard stones from the lentils.
Clean several times and soak them in a high amount of water for a night.
Drain the water and rinse them well.
In a blender, add the soaked lentils and the optional spices.
Gradually add water (I added 1.5 cups) to have a crepe-like batter.
Pour the batter in a few jars halfway.
The batter will double during the fermentation process.
Place a kitchen towel or a lid without closing it to let the air circulate.
Let ferment 12h to 24h.
After this time, it might show 2 phases, stir and cook them like pancakes or crepes in a pan.
