The cereal and pulse combination makes this recipe a good source of quality protein. These thin, crisp moong dal dosa for pregnancy made of moong dal and rice make a terrific breakfast especially during your first trimester.

The fibre and vitamin content of the breakfast dal dosa is also good due to the addition of parboiled rice. Parboiled rice is a thick variety of unpolished rice that is used to make South Indian snacks like idlis and dosas.

Tips to make moong dal dosa: 1. The fermentation time of the batter may vary from season to season. While in summers it may be 8 to 10 hours, in winter it will take around 11 to 12 to ferment. 3. Always remember to spread the dosa batter in one circular direction to get a uniform layer. 4. While heart patients can enjoy this dosa in limited quantities occasionally, we do not recommend this recipe for diabetics because of the use of high glycemic index parboiled rice. 5. Once the batter is fermented, you can store it in the fridge and use within 24 hours. 6. This is the consistency of the batter.
