Wheat dosa is always my backup plan for any day's breakfast. I make sweet dosa for my daughter with banana and milk and the non-sweet version for us. With wheat , banana and milk, it is one hearty and healthy meal which makes both mummy and my daughter's tummy happy :)
This recipe is the non-sweet version of this dosa.
Ingredients:
- Wheat flour - 1 cup
- Rice flour - 1/2 cup
- Green chillies - 2 (chopped into small pieces)
- Cumin seeds - 1 /2 tea spoon
- Coriander leaves - chopped finely - 1 tablespoon
- Salt to taste
- oil
Preparation:
- Mix wheat flour , rice flour, cumin seeds and salt together in a bowl.
- Add one cup of water and make a smooth paste.
- Add 2 more cups of water. The batter should be watery.
- Add in the green chillies and coriander leaves.
- Mix well.
- Keep the dosa griddle hot and pour the dosa batter in a quick and swift motion. I have see this in the live dosa counters in our office canteen when they make rava dosa. That quick motion makes the holes in the dosa and make it crispy .
- You can either try out the fancy way or you can pour the batter in the middle and rotate the griddle in a circular motion so that the batter is evenly spread and the dosa is thin.
- Drizzle some oil on top of the dosa.
- Wait till it turns golden brown on one side and then turn it and cook on the other side.
- Remove and serve immediately with your favourite chutney.
- I normally do not use chutney as the dosa itself is very flavorful and tasty with green chillies and coriander leaves.
Note:
- For sweet dosa, mix all purpose flour with wheat flour.
- You need some patience and practice to take the dosa out of the griddle without breaking.
