INGREDIENTS

1 cup = 200 ml Wheat flour/Atta/Godhuma maavu - 1 cup Rice flour - 1/4 cup Big onion - 1 no ( chopped finely) Green chillies - 1 no (-do-) Ginger - 1inch piece ( -do-) Curry leaves - few Salt & water - as needed To temper Cooking oil - 1 tbsp Mustard seeds - 1 tsp Urad dal - 1 tsp Chana dal - 2 tsp Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp

METHOD

Take the wheat flour,rice flour and salt in a bowl. Finely chop the onions,green chillies,ginger and curry leaves.Heat 1 tbsp of oil and temper mustard seeds,urad dal,Chana dal and jeera.Mix well.Add the finely chopped onions,chillies,curry leaves & ginger.Saute until onion turns transparent. Add this sauteed mixture to the flour and mix well. Add some water and make a thick,smooth paste without lumps.Use a whisk for better mixing.Now add more water and make it slightly watery that regular dosa batter consistency so that u can make thin dosa.If you add less water,dosa will be very thick.If you add more water,dosa will come out very thin and lacy.Sometimes it may break while taking out.So add water carefully such that dosa should come out firm & crispy.For this recipe,I used around 1.75 – 2 cups of water.This may vary as per the atta u use. Now heat a dosa pan and grease it with oil. when the pan becomes hot,lower the flame to medium.Take a ladleful of dosa batter and pour it in a concentric manner.First fill the outer portion of dosa tawa.Then fill the inner portions & holes.Refer VIDEO for better understanding.Drizzle a tsp of oil all over the dosa. Cook for few seconds in high flame.The sides of dosa will lift automatically.Now flip the dosa and cook in medium flame for few seconds.Remove in a plate.Before making the second dosa,lower the flame completely and mix the batter well.Now pour the batter and make dosas.Serve hot with chutney or podi as u wish ! Enjoy !

Note

If you wish to make thick dosas ,add less water. For thin dosa,more water should be added.But do not make the batter too thin. Suppose if the batter is too watery,add some atta & rice flour to adjust its consistency. If you don’t want to add onions,u can completely skip it and add pepper corns instead. This dosa can be made even without tempering.In that case,just dilute the batter and add raw pepper corns,cumin seeds.Mix well and make dosa. You can also make this dosa without adding rice flour.Add equal amount of wheat flour & Ragi flour.Dosa will be easy to cook,firm and healthy too. For mild tangy taste,u can add 2 tbsp of curd or 1/4 cup of buttermilk in the above recipe.
