Nice video.We use moong dal(green gram)to make dosa called pesarattu. Delicious and also low glycemic index of 29.

Yes, moong bean is also good for diabetes friendly dosa.

There are three fermented (over night at room temperature) process breakfast, Idli,Dosa and Appam.

Idli is a steamed product.

Dosa and Appam both are cooked using oil!

Then all thee three are eaten with other things like sambal and sambar and so on.

Technology allows now days to make these three breakfast items as "Instant".

In 21st C may be once in a while, because most of us desk based workers!!!

Various mix of grains are used in traditional preparations of these items which are tasty but not diabetes friendly because of high carb content.

Hi Praveen55 ,

Thanks for sharing the video. I always prefer Paneer instead of the processed cheese. I have not tried almond flour yet. Its a good suggestion.
