Proso Millet Dosa (Millet Dosai)

Proso Millet Dosa / Pannivaragu Dosai(Millet Dosai)
Millets are a good source of nutrition as compared to rice. Nowadays people prefer to take millets in their daily food intakes. Proso Millet / Pannivaragu/ Barri / Varrigulu/ Barahu dosa recipe is easy to make with just 3 ingredients. 
For dosa no fermentation is required but if you wish can rest the batter for half an hour.
My batter rested for 3-4 hrs. As I prefer resting the dosa batter which gives a slight sourness to dosa.
Ingredients:
Proso Millet/ Pannivaragu - 3 cups
Urud dal/ black gram dal - 1 cup
Fenugreek/ methi seeds - 1/2 tsp
Salt - 1.5 tsp / as per taste
Oil - 3-4 tablespoons
Method:
# Rinse and wash proso millet.
# Soak it for 2-3 hrs.
# Wash and soak urud dal and methi for 45 minutes.

# First grind urud dal and methi to a smooth paste. Sprinkle water / add water to form a smooth paste.
# Remove the urud dal paste in a container.
# Grind proso millet, salt by adding little water in two batches.
# Mix well urud dal paste and prosomillet paste together with your hands, as it helps the batter to ferment faster. For dosa batter you can add little water to adjust the consistency. It should not be thick like a idli batter. A thin dropping consistency.
# Heat a tawa / non-stick pan. Sprinkle oil let the tawa be heated well, add a scope of batter and spread to form a circle to make dosa. Sprinkle some oil. Flame should me in medium heat.
# In 30 seconds flip the dosa.
# Cook for 30 seconds.
