Ingredients
  

For Batter:
  • ½ cup whole moong dal soaked overnight
  • 2 green chillies
  • ½ inch ginger
  • Salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 100 grams spinach washed thoroughly
  • 2 tablespoons water for grinding
  • 1 tablespoon gram flour besan
For Filling:
  • Grated paneer as required
  • Cheese optional
  • Tomato ketchup for spreading

Method

  1. Soak whole moong dal in enough water overnight or for at least 8 hours until it becomes soft.
  2. Drain the water and transfer the soaked dal to a mixer jar. Grind it into a smooth paste. Add spinach, green chilies, ginger, cumin seeds, salt, and water. Blend again until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
  3. Transfer the batter to a bowl and add gram flour. Mix thoroughly to achieve a smooth, flowing consistency.
  4. Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat, then reduce the flame to low before pouring the batter.
  5. Pour one ladle of batter onto the pan and spread it gently in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
  6. Allow the dosa to cook until the upper surface dries. Flip carefully and cook the other side for 10–15 seconds.
  7. Spread a thin layer of ketchup on the dosa. Add a small amount of grated paneer on one side.
  8. Fold the dosa and cook for a few more seconds. Remove from the pan and serve hot.

Notes

  1. Ensure the batter is smooth and not too thick
  2. Cook on low flame for best results
  3. Avoid overfilling paneer
  4. Serve immediately for best taste
