Pearl Millet / Kambu / Bajra Dosai | Healthy Breakfast




Pearl millet/ kambu dosai

Kambu/Pearl Millet dosai may be new to some,i use to make it often,instead of making regular idli/dosa i use to make dosai with quinao,finger millet,oats,horse gram,etc. as the regular rice has not much health  benefit i use to do so.This kambu has many good things with it like low cholesterol,gluten free,high iron content,rich in fibre, folate, iron, magnesium, copper, zinc, vitamins-E and B-complex, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin.Try using this in your diet.

Beetroot Vadai






I hope all like to munch something for tea/coffee in the evening, mostly many prefer fried items.I saw this vadai in The Hindu newspaper and some co-bloggers to have this in their blog.I made this as evening snack yesterday and all were finished in minutes.
