calories
Methods:
Rinse the quinoa out in running water for 5-7 minutes to get rid of the bitterness.
Then soak it along with the daal and methi seeds for a minimum of three hours or overnight. If you have only three hours then soak it in boiling hot water till the grains are nice and soft.
Grind the mixture without the water. This is to ensure the correct consistency.
Then, add the water (in which it was soaked). Grind again till you get the consistency of dosa batter.
Rub the batter between your thumb and index finger till it is fine with a little bit of graininess.
Add salt as per taste and mix.
Make dosas as we do with regular batter.
For the masala, add some oil to a hot pan, add the mustard seeds and curry leaves.
Once they crackle add some hing.
Then add the sliced onions and sauté with a dash of salt.
Throw in the green chillies, the turmeric and cook for a minute.
Then add the chopped/mashed sweet potatoes.
Now for the final presentation, make a cone of the dosa and serve the sweet potato mixture on the side. For garnish, fry a stalk of curry leaves and place it on top of the plate.
