1. Soak Pesalu ( Green Gram) & Rice overnight.

2. Grind Pesalu (Green Gram), Rice, Jeera, Green Chili, and Ginger to a smooth paste like dosa batter. ( I prefer using the batter the next day so that it ferments well)

3. Heat a Pan with oil spread all sides. Take batter and spread it in round shape like a circle on the pan.
