UPMA VARIETIES

During this lockdown period, when I was thinking to post a collection of some easy breakfast/ dinner recipes, Upma varieties came to my mind. Guys, Please don't hit me for posting this collection😁. According to me, Upma recipe is an under rated dish😉. If properly made, it is one of the easiest and tastiest Indian tiffin recipes that can be prepared instantly with minimal ingredients.

Black Urad Dal Idli Dosa – Karuppu Ulundhu Idli, Dosai

black urad dal idli dosa
Recently I started making idli, dosa batter adding black urad dal (Karuppu ulundhu in Tamil) instead of white urad dal. When I was newly married I have seen my MIL making idli batter with black urad dal but she removes the skin before grinding the batter. Though its a time consuming process, I found it healthier than white urad dal idli. But here I have made the black urad dal idli with skin. I used whole, round black gram dal. You can use split black urad dal too. In my native place Tirunelveli, we make black urad dal dosa which we call as Kurunai dosai in Tamil. I have shared that recipe in my blog years ago. I have always wanted to try soft idli with black urad dal. So I tried it recently and succeeded in my attempt too. Only the color of idli, dosa looks grey otherwise there is no difference in taste and softness.

 Friends, do try this healthy idli with black urad dal and let me know your feedback.
