Watermelon (White portion -peel) Dosa
Isn't it amazing to have a fruit whose each and every part is useful, the fruit itself pink portion, seeds and yes the rind i.e the white portion, a few days back had posted a sabzi out of it. A few days back i tried this dosa believe me its amazing ....do try.
Ingredients:
Rice - 1 1/2 cupMelon pieces(white rind portion alone) - 1 cup
Fenugreek seeds - 1/2tsp
Scrapped coconut - 1/2 cup
red chillies, coriander seeds, cumin seed
finely chopped onion-1 med, green chilli-2-3, coriander and curry leaves
Salt - for taste
Method:
Soak rice and fenugreek seeds in water for two hours.
Puree the white portion of the watermelon.
Grind the soaked rice, coconut and melon puree together into a smooth batter. You can also add red chillies, coriander seeds, cumin seeds while grinding.
Add salt to the batter and mix well. The batter doesn't have to ferment.
The batter should be little thinner than Idli batter consistency.
Now add finely chopped onion, green chilli, coriander and curry leaves to the batter and mix well. Keep this aside for about 15 minutes so that all the flavours blend well.
Heat tawa/griddle and pour a ladle full of batter spread and cook on both the sides in medium-low heat till they turn golden brown.
Serve hot with Chutney or Sambar
Seriously, this is unbelievable stuff. I thought you were supposed to throw away the white rind.
