Ingredients

For the Green Dosa Batter

  • Green Moong Sprouts – 2 cups
  • Ginger – 1 inch piece
  • Green Chilli – 1
  • Fresh Coriander Leaves – ½ cup
  • Mint Leaves – ¼ cup
  • Cumin Seeds – ½ teaspoon

Instructions

Prepare the Green Batter

  1. Add the sprouted green moong, ginger, green chilli, coriander leaves, mint leaves, cumin seeds, black pepper, salt, and ice cube to a blender.
  2. Blend everything together using very little water until you get a smooth and thick batter.
  3. The batter should have a thick dosa-like consistency and should not be too runny.
  4. Your nutritious green dosa batter is now ready.

Make the Paneer Podi Green Dosa

  1. Heat a dosa tawa or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  2. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot tawa and gently spread it into a thick round dosa, similar to an uthappam.
  3. Sprinkle a generous amount of grated paneer evenly over the surface.
  4. Dust the dosa with Milagai Podi (gunpowder spice mix) according to your taste.
  5. Drizzle a little ghee around the edges and on top.
  6. Cook on medium-low heat until the bottom becomes golden brown and crispy while the paneer is lightly warmed.
  7. Carefully remove the dosa from the tawa and transfer it to a serving plate.

Serve

Serve the High Protein Green Dosa hot with coconut chutney, mint chutney, or your favorite South Indian accompaniment for a wholesome and satisfying meal.

Recipe Tips

  • Use fresh sprouts for the best flavor and nutrition.
  • Add spinach leaves for an even richer green color.
  • Adjust the amount of green chilli to suit your spice preference.
  • For extra protein, add more grated paneer before serving.

This healthy sprouts-based dosa is packed with protein, fiber, and fresh herbs, making it an excellent breakfast or light meal option.
