Quinoa Dosa or Quinoa Crepe is a very healthy recipe for dosa/crepe lovers.This is a very nutritious recipe with various variations.For now we will look at the basic Quinoa dosa recipe.
Required Ingredients:
----------------------
Quinoa grains....2cups
Water....enough for soaking
Yogurt....4cups
Salt......to taste
Preparation:
------------
Wash the Quinoa grains thoroughly 3 times with cold water so that the bitterness of the grain is washed out.Now soak the washed Quinoa in water or directly in the yogurt for 20 minutes.After soaking put the whole soaked grains with yogurt in the blender and make a smooth batter so that it is in a pourable consistency.If it is thick you can add little water.Add salt to the batter and mix well.
Making Dosa:
-------------
Now that the batter is ready,take a non-stick pan and heat it on medium temperature.
Once the pan heated pour 2 ladles of batter on the heated tawa/pan and quickly move the ladle in circular motions from inside to outside and make a nice circular dosa.You don't need to use any oil for these dosas.They are very good without oil.
Once the dosa is done on one side flip it to the other side and keep it on the tawa for a minute and serve it with any chutney or sambar.

ReplyDeleteWhat is the Indian name of this grain?
ReplyDeleteMr.Chaturvedula thank you for your comments.Keep visiting the site and maybe you will find many more interesting recipes.
ReplyDeleteDaisy Blue, thank you for visiting my blog.To my knowledge Quinoa is a native grain of Southern America since the Inca civilisation for thousands of years and has come into commercial distribution only in recent years due to it's balanced nutrition and good protein value.I don't think this grain is still available in abundance in India,even if it is available they must be calling it by the same name "Quinoa".
