Pesarattu / Whole Green Gram Dosa

Pesarattu is a unique Telugu cuisine. A popular recipe of Andhra Pradesh. Typically the dosa batter made of whole green gram, green chillies and ginger. Can be eaten as both snack and breakfast served with chutney. Sometime also served with upma tooJ. I have included this recipe with a combination of yellow moong dal. My Mom makes the best Pesarattu I have ever eaten. Here goes the recipe…
