Ingredients

Method

  1. Transfer rice and dal into a stone grinder. Add 2½ cups water and grind to a coarse batter. Transfer in a bowl and set aside to ferment for 6-8 hours.
  2. Add salt to the batter just before cooking and mix well.
  3. To make each doddak, heat 2 teaspoons oil in a non-stick pan, add ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds and ¼ teaspoon split skinless black gram. Once the mustard seeds start to splutter, add asafoetida, ¼ teaspoon fenugreek seeds, 1 chopped green chilli and 1 teaspoon chopped curry leaves and sauté for 1 minute.
  4. Add a ladle full of the batter over the tempering and let it spread by itself. Cover and cook on low heat for 5-6 minutes. 
  5. Remove the cover, flip and cook the other side as well for 3-4 minutes on low heat.
  6. Transfer onto a serving plate and serve hot.
