Ingredients

1 cup Whole wheat flour
1 cup Rice flour
Salt to taste
2 Green chilli (finely chopped)
10 - 15 Curry leaves (finely chopped)
2 tsp Cumin seeds
1/2 inch piece Ginger (grated)
Water as required
Oil as required

1 tsp Oil
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
1 pinch Asafoetida

Method

In a bowl, mix whole wheat flour, rice flour, salt, green chilli, curry leaves, cumin seeds and ginger.
Add water little by little and mix well so that no lumps are formed. The batter should be watery, just like a rawa dosa batter. Adjust water as required. Keep this aside.
Heat oil in a small pan. Add mustard seeds and when they splutter, add asafoetida and pour this into the dosa batter. Mix well.
Heat a tawa and spread little oil on it. Now pour a laddleful of batter onto the hot tawa. It will spread on its own with some holes in between. Pour a tsp oil on all the sides of the dosa.
When one side is done, flip and let the other side cook.
When both sides turns golden brown colour, take off from the tawa.
Serve it hot with any chutney of your choice.

Ingredients

2 tsp Green chilli (crushed)
2 tsp Sugar substitute (optional)
1 tsp Tamarind pulp
1 tsp Chilli powder
2 tsp Soya sauce (optional)
2 tsp Lemon juice
2 tbsp Coriander leaves (finely chopped)
Salt to taste
3 cups Raw papaya (grated)
3/4 cup Tomatoes (thinly sliced)
2 tbsp Peanuts (roasted and crushed)

Method

In a mortar, put green chilli, sugar substitute, tamarind pulp, chilli powder, soya sauce, lemon juice, coriander leaves and salt. Pound it into a coarse paste using the pestle. You can use a mixer to do this. Keep this aside.
Put the grated raw papaya in ice cold water for half an hour. This is done to make it crisp.
Drain and wrap in a muslin cloth and keep in the refrigerator till it is ready to use.
Just before serving, combine all the ingredients along with the sliced tomatoes and crushed peanuts, in a big bowl and toss well.
Serve immediately.
