toss in this to a large mixing dish.Now grind the rice and dal mixture slightly coarsely with little liquid in the mixer grinder and toss in it into the urad mixture.To the same dish toss in the 2 cups rice baking flour and pulse all the fixings to resemble a mixture between thick and flowy.Sit this on a mildly hot place and ferment for 8-12 hours depending on where you live. Once fermented toss in the table salt and sweetener pulse well and now the mixture is ready to make dosas.*To make the Saagu.  In a tiny dish soak 3 teaspoons chana dal and in another cup soak another 1 teaspoon chana dal in liquid for about an hour. Meanwhile, chop all the vegetables and set aside.In a mixer jar, toss in all the fixings under grinding - Jeera seeds, Coriander seeds, Byadgi Chillies, Guntur Chillies, cinnamon stick, turmeric ground mix and just-picked coconut with the 3 teaspoons of soaked chana dal and grind to slightly coarse paste with very little liquid.In a wide vessel toss in the vegetables - carrots, beans, turnips except pumpkin with little liquid and make until just done but not very soft.
