Rava Dosa

Ingredients
Rava / Sooji – 1 1/2 cup
Rice Flour – 1 cup
Maida – 1/2 cup
Cumin Seeds – 1/2 sp
Pepper Powder – 1/2 sp
Salt – 1/4 sp or to taste
Ginger  - 1 inch piece finely chopped
Green Chilli – 2 (finely chopped)
Grated Coconut – 1/4 cup (optional)
Curry leaves – 10 Nos. (chopped)
Coriander leaves – little (chopped)
Water – 2 to 3 cups
Onion – 2 (medium sized, finely chopped)

Procedure
  1. Mix all the dry ingredients except onion in a bowl.
  2. Add water to get a very watery batter.
  3. Heat the dosa tawa at medium – high and spread a handful of onion on it.
  4. Sprinkle the batter over the onions simply with hand in a thin fashion so that holes can be seen on the surface.
  5. Spread a spoonful of oil on the top. Let this cook for  about 2 min.
  6. Now flip the dosa and cook the other side for another 2 – 3 min or until it becomes very crispy.
  7. Serve with coconut / coriander / mint chutney . It also tastes excellent w/o any chutney.

     
                        

Note
  1. The batter can be prepared immediately before dosa preparation. No pre- planning required.
  2. The batter can be kept for 1 – 2 hrs so that the rava absorbs some water and loses its raw smell. Extra water if required, can be added at the time of dosa preparation.
  3. Never flip the dosa until it is brown at the bottom to avoid the dosa splitting into pieces.
  4. The more crispier the dosa, the more tastier it will be.
