Serving Suggestions :

Sidedish : Coconut Chutney / Aviyal / Crushed Jaggery / Butter / Tomato Chutney / Honey

Notes :

1.You can use 3 green chilli instead of red chillies.

2.You can use the adai batter after grinding or give 3 hrs of standing time,which gives more taste.

3.You can use handfull of drumstick leaves,Vaazhapoo or grated carrots as per your wish.

4.Sometimes i give a pulse grind for onions too,which is easy to spread.(Co-sister’s tip)

5.Our human body needs much more energy/protein in morning time.So make adai for breakfast preferrably.(It takes more time to digest,so avoid eating as a dinner dish).

6.You can also add equal amount of dhals.Dhal proportions may vary home by home.
