Special Rava Dosa

Coming up today is another ready to make dosa. You can prepare the flour and store it. This is just like wheat or rice flour. You can store it for 2 to 3 months.


 The method for the preparation of the flour.


1. Raw rice - 1 kg
2. Rava - 1 kg


If you have time, you can wash the rice and dry it, else use it just like that. Grind both the rice and rava together in the rice flour mill of your mixer to a very fine powder. Sieve and store in a box.


Its easy. Now it is available to you anytime you want to make. Lets see how to prepare the dosa now.

1. Ground flour - 2 cups
2. Salt to taste
3. Oil
4. Mustard seeds - 1/2 tbsp
5. cumin seeds - 1/2 tbsp
6. Urad dhal - 1/2 tbsp
7. Onion - 2 finely chopped
8. Ginger - 1 tbsp finely chopped
9. Green chillies - 2 finely chopped
10. Curry leaves - 10 to 15 finely chopped
11. Coriander leaves - handful finely chopped.


Heat a pan, add oil and season with mustard, cumin seeds and urad dhal. Add ginger, green chilles and curry leaves and saute for a minute. Add the onions and saute. When the onions slightly change color, remove from heat and add to the batter.

Heat the tava, and spread the batter just like maida- rava dosa, in the form of outer circle and the batter would run inwards and make dosa with lots of small holes in it. Add oil and cook on both sides till they turn light brown.

Crispy, special rava dosa ready! Serve hot with onion or tomato chutney.

If we keep the flour ready. then the preparation is instant, it would take a maximum of 10 minutes. Kids would like the taste of this dosa, as they are crispier and different from the usual one, they would enjoy it.
