Thavala Adai is a famous Tambrahm recipe made with rice and lentils. This protein rich dish can be served as breakfast, snack or dinner. I used Foxtail Millet for this recipe. Millets give extra crispiness to the dish compared to rice. Adding beetroot gives a vibrant pink colour and makes the adai all the more healthy!
For centuries, people of Tamil nadu lived on old rice soaked in water and having it along with some onions, salt and buttermilk as breakfast! This is a very good probiotic drink with which I grew up with. This was our regular breakfast food during summer vacations. Due to modernisation, we lost all these healthy dishes! I used Kodo millet rice for this recipe and revived my good old childhood memories!
Milkshake is a sweet cold beverage that is usually made using fruits, milk and some sweetener. I used millet milk, mango puree and jaggery for this recipe and it was absolutely delicious. Chickoo, banana and apple are also used for making milkshakes.
When one of my friend shared this variety, I Immediately tried as I had some leftover buttermilk dosa batter! The paniyarams were very soft from inside and crisp from outside with the goodness of veggies and schezwan sauce flavour!
One of my friend recently shared this dosa variety with buttermilk. She made dosa with rice. I modified the recipe to suit millets. The end result was an awesome super soft tasty dosas!
