Dosa

Today I am sharing the recipe of dosa.Dosa is South-Indian breakfast item. Dosa is rich in carbohydrates & protein. We can have Dosa with chammanthy ( chutney) or sambar.There are different types of Dosa like Paper dosa, Masala dosa ,Egg dosa, Ghee dosa etc.

Ingredients

Raw rice ~ 2 cups

Urad dal ( Uzhunnu) ~ 1 cup

Fenugreek seeds ~ 1/2 tsp

Cooked rice ~ 3/4 cup

Salt to taste.

Method

• First wash rice and urad dal separately and add fenugreek seeds to the rice. Then soak urad dal and rice in water for about 5-6 hours Note: Keep them in separate vessels.

• Then after 4-5 hours drain the water from rice and urad dal and grind urad dal, cooked rice and soaked rice by adding water little by little to a fine paste. The batter should be of medium consistency. Add salt to the batter and keep it covered in a warm place for about 8-10 hours for fermentation.

• Heat tawa / pan and apply little oil using a cloth. Then pour batter to the tawa using a big serving spoon. And spread it using the back side of spoon in a circular fashion.

• And when one side becomes slightly brown in color turn it around using a spatula and cook the other side. When both sides are cooked remove from the flame.

Serve hot with Chammanthy or Sambar.
