My neighbor gave me a homemade  health mix powder and told me to make dosa with it. It tasted excellent. My hubby loved it.Its color & taste is similar to ragi dosa.I prepared tomato chutney as accompaniment.I asked her the ingredients of the powder,ground in mill and kept it.I make this once in a week nowadays instead of the usual ragi dosa .Try this , iam sure u’ll love this healthy dosa.

For dosa :

Method :

• Take one cup of health mix powder in a wide mouthed bowl and add the sour curd , salt , pepper corns with required water .
• Mix well to make a dosa batter consistency.I made it watery to get a crispy dosa.
• Heat a dosa tawa and pour the batter in a circular manner from outwards.
• Drizzle little oil and cook on both sides.

Enjoy eating  this crispy , lacy , hot  dosa with tomato or coconut chutney !!
