Oats Dosa


Today my recipe is Oats dosa. This is very tasty and smooth dosa. Till now i tried oats idly, oats pongal and oats porridge. Now i tried oats dosa.It was very healthy and easy to make. I used less oil to make dosa. We can also make dosa without oil. I make dosa frequently without oil.This is the best recipe for breakfast/snack time for everyone. Now a days oats are used  very frequently. Oats are a good source of magnesium, selenium, manganese and phosphorous. Oats are unique.They are one of the only grains that contain both soluble and insoluble fiber (barley is another). In fact, oats have the highest soluble fiber content of any grain. Though both types are important, soluble fiber is especially helpful against heart disease, and can help moderate blood sugars. Oats are also a good source of vitamin B1. The protein in oats is almost equivalent to the quality of soy protein, and combined with the dietary fiber, makes it the ideal food to start the day with.
Health benefits of oats:
a) Lower cholesterol 
b) Lower blood pressure c) Blood sugar control  
d) Digestive health  e) Weight control.
