Rava dosa
By Nithu on Feb 4, 2008 in Veggie Entrées & Sides
The dosa is a South Indian crepe. This food, high in carbohydrates and proteins, is a breakfast recipe. Rava dosa doesn’t need fermentation and is usually considered a fast snack/tiffin. You can serve it along with any chutneys or sambar or dosa/idli podi (which is made of chillies and lentils, available in Indian store). It hardly takes half an hour to prepare the dosa batter. Though considered a breakfast dish, dosas are also eaten at other times of day.
Ingredients:
- Rice flour - 1 cup
- Semolina (rawai) - 1 cup
- All purpose flour (maida) - 1/2 cup
- Butter milk - 1 cup
- Chopped onion - 1/2 cup (adjust to taste)
- Green chillies - 2 (finely chopped)
- Cumin seeds - 1 tbsp
- Curry leaves - a few (finey chopped)
Method of preparation:
- Mix all the flours and add butter milk and water
- Mix them well. Use your hand to avoid flaky texture
- It should not look like normal dosa batter. It should be so watery that you shouldn’t be able to spread it using a spatula
- Now add the onions, green chillies, cumin seeds and curry leaves
- Mix them all
- Heat the griddle and pour a spatula full of batter over it leaving the centre portion of the griddle and spread it towards centre by holding the handle of the griddle
- Turn both the sides and fry
- Dosa is ready

Serve with any chutney/sambar/dosa podi

Hmmm I love dosas, but actually hate rava dosas! Somehow the shape/holes put me off
Do you have a recipe for raagi dosas/chapaties however? I would love to hear…
