    Chola Adai Recipe
    Pin
    As you all know I love adai recipes soo much….I just modified ammas adai recipe and my millet adai recipe and tried this one replacing rice with cholam(vella cholam) / sorghum / jowar.Recently I tried Sorghum dosai and my next try is this Sorghum Adai.Adai and coconut chutney are a match made in heaven, I love to have it with jaggery too.

    Our internet is down for the past 2 days and I was relaxing too so no posts also.Thank to hubby who is sharing his internet with me and today thought to resume posting as if I give a long gap then I will become lazy 😉

    My Notes:

    • You can make big adais too.
    • If you want to make crispy ada dosa then grind the batter fine, I wanted mine thick so made the batter a little coarse as shown in the steps.
    • Make sure to cook on one side , only then flip over to other side else it will stick and will not be easy to turn over.
    • No need of standing time,you can make adais instantly once you have the batter.
    • The batter keeps well for 2-3 days if refrigerated.
    • You can make thick adais or thin crispy dosa kinds.If you want to make thin adai dosas then make the batter little thin so that spreading is easy.
    • I used my cast iron dosa pan so the edges were nicely crisp.
    • Use freshly grinded pepper powder for great flavour.
