Adai

 The Adai is something we hated with a lot of passion when we were children - but as an adult absolutely love it and the kids hate it now. 

1 measure Idli rice  (Raw rice makes the adai crispy - so if you like it that way do this substitution). Soak for 3-4 hours.

3/4th measure black moong + 1/4th measure chana dal + moong dal (the way amma puts it is 3/4 of the glass fill with black moong, remaining 1/4th the other two dals) Soak for 1hour max.

Add Curry leaves (lots), Red chilli (soak for an hour), a pinch of Hing

Grind all ingredients together into a not so watery consistency - it has to be thick. 

Cook like dosa on a tawa - and be generous with sesame oil and patient with time.
