Ingredients used in Herbal green Dosai or Mudakkatran keerai Dosai

• Mudakkatran keerai(balloon wine leaves)paste - 1 cup.

• Idly - dosa paste - 2 cup.

Method:

Making Mudakkatran keerai paste: Collect the green leaves and tender stems of the Mudakkatran plant. Grind them to a fine paste using food processor with little water. Manually mix 0.75 - 1 cup of Mudakkatran keerai paste and 2 cups of dosa paste to get a medium green color dosa paste. Adding more than 1 cup of keerai paste will make the dosa bitter. Spread the herbal green dosa paste on a non stick dosa pan over a stove top. The thickness of dosa spread can be similar to the thickness of #39;set dosa#39; or #39;Uthappam#39;. Cover the Spread completely with a dome shaped lid and let it cook for 1 min. Covering with this lid will make the cooking process fast on upper side of dosa by steam. There is no need to turn the dosa to the other side in this process. The cooked dosa will be slightly crisp on one side and soft on the other side. The green color of the dosa is maintained well on the upper side. The Mudakkatran keerai dosa is ready.
