Spinach Oats Adai

Ingredients:

For Soaking:

• Idly Rice - 1/2 cup
• Brown Rice - 1/2 cup (Can be replaced with Raw Rice)
• Oats - 1 cup
• Toor Dhal - 1/3 cup
• Channa Dhal - 1/4 cup
• Whole green Moong Dhal - 1/4 cup
• Masoor Dhal - 1/4 cup

Other Ingredients:

• Spinach leaves, washed - 2 cups
• Green chillies - 2-3 nos (Adjust as per spice level)
• Ginger - 1 inch piece
• Salt - to taste
• Sesame Oil - as required for preparing adai
• Vegetable Toppings (Optional) - We can use finely chopped small onions or grated carrots

Method:

1. Wash & Soak Rice and Dhals together along with Oats for about 3-5 hrs or overnight
   
2. After soaking, grind the mixture in blender / mixie to a little thick batter. The consistency should be slightly grainy similar to our usual adai batter and keep aside
3. In a blender add the washed spinach leaves, ginger and green chillies and grind to a smooth paste with little water
4. Mix the spinach paste into the rice-dhal mixture; add required salt and mix well
   
5. Heat Tawa and grease it. Pour a ladle of adai batter and slightly spread it. If we want on crispier side, we can make it thin like our normal dosa
   
6. Pour few drops of oil around the corners and cook covered for few seconds 
7. Once it gets cooked on one side, flip it over and cook the other side too
   
8. Transfer to plate and serve hot with your favourite side dish.
9. Spicy Garlic or Tomato or Onion Chutney will be a good choice with this adai:)
