In a bowl, add 1/4 cup urad dal, 1/4 cup chana dal, 1/4 cup toor dal, 1/4 cup green mung dal, and 1/2 cup rice. Rinse thoroughly with water 2-3 times to clean.

Soak the mixture in water for 7-8 hours or overnight.

After soaking, rinse again and transfer to a blender. Add 2 green chilies, 1/2 inch ginger, and 1/4 cup water. Blend until smooth, adding more water if necessary.

Transfer the batter to a bowl, add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar, and mix well. No fermentation is needed.

For chutney, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan. Add 1 tablespoon chana dal and 1 tablespoon urad dal, and fry on low flame for 1-2 minutes.

Add 8-10 garlic cloves and 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, and fry until fragrant.

Add 2 sliced onions and cook until they turn pink, about 2-3 minutes.

Add 10-12 curry leaves, 3 dried red chilies, and a bit of tamarind, and sauté for a few seconds.

Add 2 chopped tomatoes and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook on low flame for 2-3 minutes until tomatoes soften.

Stir in 2 teaspoons Kashmiri chili powder and mix well. Cook for a few more minutes until everything is combined.

Let the mixture cool, then transfer to a blender and blend until smooth, adding water if needed for consistency.

For tempering, heat 2 tablespoons oil and add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, curry leaves, and dried red chilies. Pour over the chutney and mix well.

Heat a cast iron skillet and sprinkle some water on it. Pour a ladle of batter and spread it into a circle.

Drizzle oil around the edges and cook on low to medium flame for about 2-3 minutes until crispy and golden brown.

Remove the dosa from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter.
