Crisp kara adai with chutneys

Crisp, spicy lentil adai without soaking or grinding. Serve with avial, jaggery or a coconut chutney.

Time: 15 minutes · Serves: 2

You need

  • 1 cup Orgville Kara Adai Mix
  • About ¾ cup water
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped (optional)
  • A few curry leaves, chopped
  • Oil for the tawa

Method

  1. Mix the adai mix with water into a thick, pourable batter. Rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the onion and curry leaves.
  3. Heat a tawa, pour a ladle of batter and spread it a little thicker than a dosa.
  4. Make a small hole in the centre, drizzle oil around the edges and in the hole.
  5. Cook on medium heat until golden underneath, flip and cook the other side.

Tip

For extra crunch, spread the batter thinner and cook on a lower flame for longer.
