Method
- Soak the rice and lentils in water for at least 2 hours.
- After soaking, drain the rice and lentils.
- Blend them with a little water to achieve a thick batter.
- Transfer the batter to a mixing bowl and fold in the chopped onions, greens, green chilies, cumin seeds, and salt.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat.
- Grease the skillet lightly with oil.
- Pour a ladleful of batter onto the skillet and spread it into a circle, about 6 inches in diameter.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
- Carefully flip the Adai using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until both sides are nicely browned.
- Remove from the skillet and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
Notes
Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes before cooking for optimal texture and flavor.
