Ingredients:

  • 2 Cups Multi Millet Flour

Directions:

  1. Wash and soak dal and methi seeds together for 4 hours.
  2. Wash and soak Barley separately for 4 hours.
  3. Wash and soak Poha for an hour.
  4. Using a blender, first grind dal and methi seeds till fluffy. Remove.
  5. Add Barley and grind coarsely. Add poha to it and  grind together till smooth.
  6. Add millet flour, water, salt and mix everything to dosa batter consistency. Make sure that there are no lumps.
  7. Ferment for 8 hours or over night.
  8. Make dosas and serve with chutney/sambar/podi

  5. Where do you get multi millet flour? I also have a same question, can we use whole kodo or barnyard or foxtail millet?

    1. Hi Amee,

    2. Hi Amee,
      Seen you in UBF. Thanks for your visit. Formaking dosas with whole millets, please check my other posts. For this recipe, instead of multi millet flour, you can use single millet flour.

    1. Hi Veena,
