Why a blog on GD?

I thought of writing something on diet for Gestational Diabetes (GD) when my daughter-in-law had GD last year. Being a vegetarian, she had very little choice when it came to American hospital diet. She was admitted in the hospital on the 26th week of gestation with high GD and for about 3 weeks, I had to manage her diet with proper calculation of carbohydrate, protein and fibre.With proper guidance and wonderful cooperation from her dietitian, we could keep her glucose level under control. She delivered a girl baby on her 29th week, and both mother and daughter are doing great today.

COCONUT  DOSA

A very simple all time favorite dosa.

Soak one cup of raw rice for two hours.

No urad dhal is required , just rice

After two hours, grind the rice, one cup of fresh coconut grating, and salt  to a very smooth paste adding two tbsn of water.

The batter is ready. No need to ferment. You can make dosa immediately. The batter should be a little watery than regular dosa batter. 

Just pour the batter loosely on dosa tawa, close it with a lid and in just one minute dosa will be ready.

No need to turn side. Coconut chutney or chilli pachidi will be best suited side dish. 

For morning hurry burry, this is the best tiffin. Infact if you want you can soak the rice night itself to save time in the morning. Otherwise the procedure is the same.

This is also called as Neer Dosai.
