Vegan Quinoa Oats And Lentil Dosa – A Healthy alternative to Dosa made with Quinoa, Oats and Different types of Lentils. A Perfect Crispy and Healthy Quinoa Dosa for all those who are carb conscious and trying to watch their carbs!!
Quinoa Pronounced as Keen-wah. It is a staple food for the people of Columbia. It is considered to be Superfood because of its high protein content, high in iron, magnesium.
Quinoa is versatile and can absorb any flavors when cooked. Everyone in our family loves Dosa. I tried this newer version to convert regular Dosa into much more healthier Dosa with all the healthy ingredients and got a very good success, everyone in my family loves this equally as the regular Dosa. Quinoa Dosa turned out super crispy. Very glad to share with you all this unique and creative Quinoa Dosa recipe.
Instant Quinoa Dosa Recipe with Oats and Lentils is not just healthy and crispy but are easy to make immediately after grinding the batter without fermenting. I use this same batter to make Quinoa Idli and Quinoa Dhokla. I have already shared a recipe for Quinoa Dhokla, pretty soon I will share the post for Quinoa Idli.
How to make Quinoa Oats and Lentil Dosa? What are the Ingredients used to make Quinoa Dosa?
In this Quinoa Dosa recipe, I have used Chana dal, Mong Dal, Urad dal, Toor dal and masoor dal along with Quinoa and Oats. If you don’t have or don’t want to use any of the Dal mentioned, you may simply skip it and increase the other dal quantity with same proportion. I have also added chili, ginger-chili paste and cumin seeds to enhance the taste.
Something about Super Food Quinoa.
What is Quinoa good for?
Quinoa is very nutritious and very high in proteins with all the essential Amino acids. It is very high in fiber, much higher than most grains. Plus, it is gluten-free and perfect for people with gluten intolerance. Quinoa has a low Glycemic Index, which helps in controlling blood sugar. It also helps you lose weight.
We love quinoa and try to incorporate in many different ways like Easy quinoa Cold Salad, Quinoa Khichdi, Instant Quinoa Idli, Quinoa Dhokla, Quinoa Adai, Vegan Quinoa Chili, Quinoa lettuce wrap, Quinoa with Spicy Cauliflower and many other Quinoa Breakfast recipes.
If you want to make Quick Quinoa Recipe, do give this Quinoa Black Bean Salad a try. It’s delicious and bursting with zesty flavors.
This Indian Quinoa Dosa recipe is perfect Breakfast. But you can enjoy it any time of the day, for lunch or dinner.
Best of all, Quinoa, Oats And Lentil Dosa can be made almost instantly unlike regular dosa which needs planning, grinding and fermenting one day before.

Hi Jas,
Glad you liked the idea of adding quinoa. Which Pan did you use to make this dosa? Cast Iron Pan? If yes, is it seasoned well?
