• Onion - 1 ( thinly chopped)
• Carrot - 3 ( thinly chopped)

2. Strain the water & grind the rice, fenugreek seeds, cooked rice together & the urad dhal separately to a smooth consistency adding water if needed. Add very little water while grinding the urad dhal.
3. Combine everything together along with the required amount of salt & with a spoon incorporate the batter well.
