Did you know this famous saying? “Eat your breakfast like a KING, lunch like a PRINCE and dinner like a pauper”, by an American nutritionist, Adelle Davis.

Which clearly means that our breakfast has to be the biggest meal of an day. At times, its fine to skip the dinner but breakfast should not be quit.

But, sadly many of us do not even give / get enough time for a proper king size breakfast. Our traditional South Indian breakfast recipes like, Idli, Rava Idli, Ragi Idli, Dosa, Jonna Attu / Jowar Dosa, etc, are the best fits for a complete healthy filling yet nutritious options.

While these recipes needs time for prepping. Alternatively, you can prefer quick to make breakfast smoothies smoothies, like in my collection Drink / Beverage.

Whereas, I found this dosa recipe, a middle level option, which does not require any fermentation, but just soak the ingredients for couple of hours, grind and make. 🙂

Tips:

Adjust the salt as per your taste.
Don’t spread the batter too much, like you do for regular dosa.
The dosa might turn a bit smaller in size when compared to the regular dosa, as we don’t spread them much.
The dosa turned out crispy if I used lesser batter, but turned out soft, spongy when I used more batter for a single dosa.
Storage: The batter can be stored in fridge for a week. You need not thaw, but use it right away when you take it out.

These, puffed rice crepes / murmura dosa, tasted good and were very much filling both for breakfast or for dinner.
