सामग्री

Whole green moong dal (sabut moong) 200 g, soaked 4-6 hours
dosa rice 20 g, soaked with the moong
ginger (adrak) 1/2-inch piece
cumin seeds 1 tsp
hing a pinch
salt to taste
oil 1 tsp
spring onion greens (hara pyaaz ke patte, green part only), 2 tbsp finely chopped, optional

Drain the soaked moong and rice. Blend with ginger, cumin, hing, salt, and just enough water to a smooth, medium-thick batter — no fermentation needed, use it right away.
Heat tawa on medium-high heat. Pour a ladle of batter and spread thin in a circular motion, dosa-style.
Scatter spring onion greens on top if using, and press in lightly.
Drizzle 1/2 tsp oil around the edges. Cook 2-3 minutes until the base is golden and the edges lift.
Fold in half and serve hot — no need to flip.

वैरिएशन: spread a thin layer of plain semolina upma inside before folding, for the classic "MLA pesarattu" combination, minus the onion.
