Wheat dosa is one of the traditional dosa done in South Canara. Wheat dosa is a healthy dosa and you can have them for breakfast or as snack. I have used broken wheat/cracked wheat here.
Wheat is soaked for 5 to 6 hours and grind it with little coconut and 1/3 of raw rice. Allow the dough to rest for overnight or 5 to 6 hours.
I have used broken wheat/cracked wheat instead of whole wheat grains. Fresh grated coconut and raw rice flour is used instead of raw rice.
Let us see some benefits of using broken wheat /Dalia in our diet.
Broken wheat/Cracked wheat is low in calories and loaded with nutrients. It is very helpful for weight loss and maintaining our health. Broken wheat is good for decreasing the rate fo metabolic syndrome when added to our daily diet. Broken wheat has good amount of fiber, rich in minerals like potassium, zinc, Iron and magnesium. It has no cholesterol and has very low fat init. It is very good for people who suffer from high blood pressure.
You can use the ground dough as soon as you grind the dough or you can allow the dough for fermentation and prepare dosa/dose. Both the varieties are good. The batter which is just ground gives bit sweet taste. (fresh wheat taste sweet. (Very very little).

Note :
Add only required water while grinding broken wheat or it might take longer time to grind. Adding more rice flour hardens the dosa. So use only given amount of rice flour. You can avoid coconut and grind only broken wheat. But coconut mixture adds to the taste of dosa. Dough consistency should be little more liquid than normal dosa dough. You can use raw rice instead of rice flour. Soak it along with broken wheat and grind it together.Time : 40 Minutes + Broken wheat soaking time. (5 to 6 hours at least) and
fermentation time : overnight or 5 to 6 hours.
Serves : 3 to 4.
