Barley has been a component of various health foods, but yes a little low profile. People don't even remember this wonder grain until they have a urine infection, ok at least that's what I have observed .When the summer is approaching it is good to include barley in our diet. Barley can be used in various forms but like most of my recipes reflects that I find way to incorporate an ingredient in such a recipe which makes it easier to feed kids, I found a way with barley too. Previously I have made dosa, idlis, and cookies with barley. This time also it is dosa but in a little different form, kind of a neer dosa form.
So let me get into the recipe
Ingredients
Organic dosa rice - 1cup ( ordinary dosa rice with also do)
Barley grains - 1 cup
Method
Soak the rice and barley together for couple of hours or overnight ( 3-5 hours).
Grind it well and add salt and leave it for 10-15 mins and you may add water to make the batter thin.
Keep the tava or the griddle on the stove and once the tava is hot, pour a ladle full of batter on the hot tava and cover it up. Once done you may or may not flip :)
Once cooked remove from the dosa from the pan and serve hot with chutney or curry or jam of your choice.
