Crispy quinoa dosa ready with idli podi,sambar and chutney.
Can i make this without any rice?
not sure how the result would be
Thanks pa was looking for quinoa:rice proportion that would still turn out to be good batter… gonna soak right away
But the batter smells. I rinsed the quinoa five times before soaking and twice after soaking. Even after this it smells.
Not really sure…the fermenting smell will be there just like our regular idli dosa batter
