3

Soak rice, dals, fenugreek seeds in plenty of water for at least 4-6 hours. Drain. Grind with enough water in a blender with ginger, chili, garlic,, pepper corns. Make a batter not too coarse or soft. transfer to a bowl.
4

Add the veggiies. carrot, onion, spinach and etc. Add enough water to make a fairly thick batter. Add required salt and mix. Rest the batter for 1 hour.
5

I use cast iron skillet to make cheela/adai dosai. Keep the skillet over medium heat. When hot enough, apply oil to grease the skillet. Use 1 ½ cups of batter to make the adai dosa. Spread the batter on the skillet, to make a round as thin as dosa or not too thick as adai. Spread 2 tablespoons of oil on top. Cover and cook both sides. In 3-4 minutes cheela is ready
6

Transfer the chelas/ adai dosai to a serving plate.. Always taste. I garnished it with mung and fenugreek sprouts. It can be eaten hot or at room temperature. Serve with sambar, pickle or chutney of your choice.
