Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter

  • Combine cooked rice, onion, tomato, green chilies, ginger, and yogurt in a blender. Add a little water and blend into a smooth paste.
  • In a large bowl, mix rice flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Gradually add water to create a pourable batter.
  • Add the blended rice paste to the flour mixture and stir well to combine. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes for optimal results.

Cook the Dosa

  • Heat a non-stick dosa pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with oil.
  • Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot pan, spreading it thinly and evenly to create a circular dosa.
  • Drizzle a few drops of oil around the edges of the dosa.
  • Cook until the edges turn golden brown and the dosa is crispy.
  • Flip and cook the other side for about 30 seconds until lightly browned.
  • Serve hot with your favorite accompaniments.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Perfect Dosa

  • For extra crispy dosas, let the batter ferment for a few hours or overnight in a warm place.
  • Adjust the amount of water in the batter to achieve the desired consistency. It should be slightly thicker than pancake batter.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan; cook dosas one at a time for even cooking and crispiness.
  • Experiment with different fillings! Try adding potatoes, vegetables, or cheese to your dosas for a unique twist.

I am a native of Kanyakumari district, brought up in Tiruchirapalli, and settled in Tirunelveli. I started exploring cooking at the age of 15 and learned a variety of recipes from my two grandmothers, friends, aunts, mother, and mother-in-law.

Cooking is, of course, my passion. I work as a teacher, and my colleagues love to receive recipes and tips from me, just as I enjoy learning from them. My son and husband encourage me to experiment with and innovate new dishes."
