'Naalu Ainthu Dosai', Very catchy name.. Isn't it?? Its a little variant of original adai dosai. As the name indicates, Add four or five other ingredients to rice. Soak it and grind it. These are the other five ingredients  we are adding to the rice, for the batter.

Red Brown Aval

Urad Dal

Hence its a balanced Dosai. This dosai needs only very few hours for fermenting. Even if you want to prepare for breakfast, soak the ingredients for 3 hours in the  before evening.
