Adai and Avial is a famous south indian breakfast. This is also one of my favourite. Adai is packed with lot of protein.Adai is a combination of rice and dal. Unfortunately rest of my family is in favour of it. Adai alone not bad but both of my kids hate Avial. Still every now and then I will negotiate Adai with them. Today I wanted to try out with drum stick leaves. I served with Coconut Dhal Chutney. They said it is not bad
In My mother in law place they serve with Butter (Vennai) and jaggery

Pour one ladle-ful on tawa and spread into a circle. Make sure the dosa is not too thick.
