By Ananda Lila devi dasi
Ingredients
•1 C semolina (rava)
•1 C rice flour
•½ C all purpose flour (maida)
•1 Tsp salt
•¼ -½ Tsp ground black pepper (as required)
•½ Tsp asafetida powder
•2 green chilies chopped
•1½ Tbsp finely chopped ginger
•2 Tbsp chopped fresh coriander leaves
•1 sprig fresh curry leaves
•1 Tsp cumin seeds
•4 C water
•Ghee/oil for cooking
Preparation
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all the first 11 ingredients
well. Slowly pour the
water and using a wire whisk, make batter similar to the
consistency of thin
buttermilk. (the thinner the batter, the crispier the
dosa)
2. Heat a griddle/tava on medium high heat. (Check for the
hotness of the
griddle by sprinkling some water over it. The water droplets
would dance,
sputter and then disappear)
3. Take the batter in our palms, sprinkle it on the griddle.
Keep taking more
batter and sprinkling, until it covers the griddle in a round
shaped net having
small holes. Drizzle 1 Tsp ghee/oil, over the surface and
around the edges
of the dosa. Cook until the underside is brownish in color.
Flip the dosa and
cook for another 1 minute. Slip the dosa to a serving
platter.
