Moong Whole Dosa/ Pesarattu

Pesarattu is a very popular dosa from Andra cuisine.My mom usually makes dosa with Split yellow moong dal.Making dosa with Whole moong makes the dosa more nutritious.
In Andra it is also served with Upma inside the dosa.I made coconut chutney for this dosa.
This dosa is made from soaked moong whole and rice,it does not contain any Urad dal.I have added spice like ginger,green chillies,asafoetida and coriander leaves while grinding the dosa batter.You can also add chopped onions while grinding to give it a slight variation.

Ingredients,
Moong whole - 1 1/2 cups
Rice - 3/4 cup (I used Sona Masoori rice)
Ginger - 1 and 1/2 tablespoon
Green chillies- 2
Cumin/ Jeera - 1 teaspoon
Green corinader leaves - 4-5 strands
salt - 1 teaspoon
Hing/ Asafeotida - a pinch

1. Soak Moong whole and Rice in water.Note that the moong whole and rice are going to saok water and rise,so add more water.Soak it overnight.
2. Take ginger,cumin,green chillies,chopped coriander leaves,hing and salt.Mix them.
3. Divide Moong whole and rice in 3 parts.
4. In a blender add the above mix and then add 1 part of soaked Moong whole and Rice.Grind this with 1/2 cup of water.(the reason why I add the ginger,coriander,green chillies,cumin,hing with salt first in a blender is that it gets mixed with better properly by grinding it finely)
5. Grind all the three parts with 1/2 cup of water.
6. Pour each batch of batter in a large bowl and mix well.
7. On a heated griddle pour 2 ladle full of batter and spread it in circular patterns.
8. Smear oil/ghee.
9. Fold it in half.If you want you can add chopped onions and coriander leaves before folding the dosa.
