PALAK DOSA

Green leafy vegetables are always good for health.  Palak or spinach has abundance of Vitamin K & A,  B2, B 6  & C, mangesium, potassium iron (folate), calcium.  It is also a rich source of protein, phosphours and Vitamin E, zinc, dietary fiber, copper and omega 3 fatty acids.  Less calories, fat free, cholesterol free hence need not worry about putting up flab around your tummy.  
I prepared today, Palak dosa for breakfast.  I was totally exhausted and tired so I could not think of making any elaborate dish for the breakfast.  Had 4-5 bread pieces so made dosa out of it.  I have already posted bread dosa and taken most of the ingredients from that plus the blanched palak leaves.



Let us look at the recipe now:
Ingredients:

4-5 slices of bread
1/4 cup semolina
2 tbsp rice flour
2 green chilli
15 palak leaves blanched
1/4 tsp cumin seeds
salt as required
oil

Method:

break the bread into small pieces. add the rava and sprinkle water to wet the rava and bread.  when it is soaked in water and smooth, add  green chilli, blanched palak,  cumin seeds  and grind to a smooth batter.  add water to bring the dosa consistency. add salt as required.  Heat a non stick tava, wipe with wet cloth, pour one laddleful of batter and spread it in circulat motion.  apply oil on it.  cook till done from both the sides. serve with coconut chutney,tomato chutney,  sambar, amla sweet chutney. or any kind of chutneys you see in my blog.
