Millet Pesarattu Dosa

#hp - Pesarattu Dosa is a very popular and a traditional Andhra breakfast. Nutritious and healthy, they are pancakes made of whole moong dal (green gram) and rice. At times it is stuffed with upma (semolina porridge). It is relished with coconut chutney and sambar. However, in this recipe, I gave a slight twist by replacing rice with Foxtail Millet. You may make use of any other millet of your choice. This millet has a good source of protein and iron. So this dish is a diabetic friendly recipe that can be had guilt free. Besides breakfast, it can also be served for lunch, dinner or as a lunch box meal.
