Cabbage Adai
They say “Help will come to those who seek”…and it came to me too:-)….in the form of two friends/bloggers. When i was mentioning about my dosa debacle to Anusha(A lovely food blogger and a great writer)She suggested that I try adai and when KP(A father figure to me and an amazing writer) heard that I was making adai today , he suggested that I use cabbage with it. Thanks to both of them we had a lovely , yummy sumptuous dinner
INGREDIENTS
Raw rice 1/2 cup
Par boiled rice 1/2 cup
Tuvar dhal 1/3 cup
Urad dhal 1/3 cup
Bengal gram dhal 1/3 cup
Red chillies 8-10
Ginger 1/2′ piece
Cabbage 1/2 cup
Salt to taste
Oil
PREPARATION
Soak both the rice together for 3-4hours
Soak all the dhal’s together for 3 hours
Grind rice, dhal, chillies and ginger to a paste in a mixer. Add salt and grind again.
Let the batter not be very smooth. A little coarseness adds to the texture.
The batter should not be runny too
Add finely chopped cabbage to this and mix well
Pour a ladleful of the batter on the tava and spread it using a circular motion, to make a thin dosai, keeping it in very low flame
Drizzle a little oil on the sides and cook.
When the lower side turns a little brown. turn over and cook on the other side
Repeat with the remaining batter to make those dosas
Serve hot!!!!!Tastes best with Dosai Molaga podi!!!!!

Cabbage adai looks so yummy..,nice idea too!!
A healthy and filling adai!
Very yummy and crispy looking adai….
I love adais and with cabbage they acquire a special flavour.Curry leaves and bit of hing add to the aroma.Some add broken pepper too.While molagapodi is a standard accompaniment,jaggery or a spoonful of ghee(graintype) also go well.In my younger days I used to have one each with different add-ons!!!The wonderful picture made me drool.Thanks

I have never had cabbage in a dosa variety. Innovative!
A filling breakfast for sure.
nice way to add veggies in to kids meal, Looks crispy n tasty!!
Adai looks crisp. Adding cabbage is a nice idea.
We make cabbage dosas with rice, coconut,red chillies,haldi, hing,salt and tamarind. In the batter we add finally cut cabbage.try that too. They are soft and very tasty.you can add a little cooked rice to make them extra soft. But while making dosa you have to cover and cook them.
