This Quinoa Adai is loaded with healthy ingredients and makes a Tasty and filling tiffin. Adai is a traditional South Indian breakfast, a great protein and iron-rich start for a healthy day. My Amma used to prepare this breakfast growing I remember how I emptied my plate quickly and wait for the second batch. Unlike other dosai, Adai takes a little longer time to cook but it’s worth waiting for it. My Amma prepares a traditional Iyer-style Adai - no onion version. After my marriage, my mil cooked Adai with onion. I loved this version as it enhanced the taste. Except for the onion addition, both mothers’ Adai preparation is the same.

 I think about Some breakfast classic combo

 Appam - Coconut milk/ Vegetable stew

 Ven Pongal - Gotsu/Sambar

Adai - Aviyal/Jaggery

Puttu - kadala curry

Idli/ Dosai/Paniyaram - Chutney and sambhar Poori - Potato Masala/ channa masala

Did I miss anything? If yes comment on them let’s enjoy recollecting some yummy combo. Usually, Adai is prepared with lentils and rice. To add a healthy fibre touch to our diet I used Quinoa and little rice. Like Quinoa Idli, Quinoa Bisi bele bath this is yet another fusion recipe - Indian style welcome in the home. Do you have leftover Adai batter and are too bored to repeat it for the second day? Try kunukku is a tasty evening snack
