Sugar free Dosa for controlling Diabetes / Diabetic friendly dosa
Here is a step-by-step recipe for a high-protein, sugar-free dosa made with urad dal, chia seeds, fenugreek seeds, and egg. This version is soft inside, slightly crisp outside, and naturally low-carb.
Nutrition benefits
* High protein (urad dal + egg)
* High fiber (chia seeds)
* Low glycemic
* No rice or sugar
Ingredients (Makes ~6–8 dosas)
* 1 cup urad dal (black gram, skinned)
* 1 tbsp chia seeds
* ½ tsp fenugreek seeds (methi)
* 2 eggs
* ½–¾ cup water (for grinding)
* ½ tsp salt (or to taste)
* 1–2 tsp oil or ghee (for cooking)
Optional for flavor:
* 1 green chili
* 1 tbsp chopped onion
* Pinch of cumin seeds
Step-by-Step Method
1. Wash and soak
* Rinse urad dal thoroughly 2–3 times.
* Add chia seeds and fenugreek seeds to the same bowl.
* Soak everything in water for 4–5 hours.
2. Grind the batter
* Drain most of the soaking water.
* Add soaked ingredients to a blender.
* Add ½ cup water.
* Grind until you get a smooth, fluffy batter (similar to regular dosa batter).
* If needed, add a little more water.
Tip: Batter should be pourable but slightly thick.
3. Fermentation (optional but recommended)
* Leave the batter covered in a warm place for 6–8 hours.
* It will become slightly airy and easier to digest.
* If you don't want fermentation, you can cook immediately.
4. Add egg and seasoning
* Crack 2 eggs into the batter.
* Add salt.
* Mix well until fully combined.
Optional: add green chili, onion, or cumin.
5. Heat the pan
* Heat a non-stick or cast-iron dosa tawa on medium heat.
* Lightly grease with oil or ghee.
6. Make the dosa
* Pour one ladle of batter onto the pan.
* Spread gently in a circular motion.
* Drizzle a little oil around the edges.
7. Cook
* Cook on medium heat for 2–3 minutes.
* When edges turn golden, flip.
* Cook another 1 minute.
For crisp dosa: spread thinner and cook longer.
8. Serve
Serve hot with:
* Coconut chutney
* Peanut chutney
* Avocado chutney
* Greek yogurt dip
💡 Pro Tips
* If batter is too thick → add 1–2 tbsp water.
* If dosa sticks → pan may be too cold.
* For crisp dosa → add 1 tbsp flaxseed powder to batter.
ENJOY!!!!
