Kakadi thalipeeth/ kakadi dosa

This is a breakfast item which has been a regular for my mom. I have been preparing them regularly here because all the ingredients are easily available. I think it is also called as 'tarsoli' (term applied to items prepared like a dosa)

Ingredient:
Cucumber (the zucchini variety)
upma rawa/semolina (
green peppers(1/2 depending on how hot you want it to be)
coriander (for garnishing)
sugar(about half spoon for 1 big zucchini)
salt (according to taste)

Method:
1. Grate the cucumber and mix semolina in it till it becomes a semi-soggy mixture
2. Add the green peppers, sugar and salt to the above mixture and mix it well in an electric mixer till it becomes a smooth thick paste
3. Now add some oil in a frying pan and spread the paste in the form of a thin layer on the frying pan.
4. Cover the frying pan for some minutes and keep it on low heat.
5. When one side turns a bit golden brown flip it and do the other side.

Can be served with green mint chutney or tomato sauce
