Sweet version of millet dosa or pancakes
Follow the first two steps of millet pancakes instructions and mix all the grinded batter together.
In this stage, you can add the jaggery as I did or else you can add them later too as toppings.
Now, melt the jaggery with ¼ cup of water and add it to the batter by filtering it,once it is slightly cooled.
To cook Pancakes aka Dosa
Atfirst, Heat the tawa at high flame, when it is ready spread little oil.
Also, ensure that the tawa or griddle is not too hot, while spreading the batter.Thentake a spoonful of batter and make small pancakes by spreading and lower the flame.
If you're adding jaggery shreds rather than melted jaggery add at this stage.

Gentlyflip the side, when one side is cooked.
Flipping needs to be taken extra care if you're adding melted jaggery directly to the batter.
