Adai is a healthy dosa made with mixed lentils and rice. I usually try to make different types of adai. This adai is made with five dhals and brown rice and boiled rice. This is a fiber rich breakfast which is very good for people with diabetes.
We have to soak the lentils and rice together for 3 to 4 hours and then grind to a coarse batter in a grinder by adding red chilies. Then we can make dosas and serve hot with tomato chutney or onion chutney.
