Rava dosa

Rava dosa is a quick breakfast or dinner that you can make. Dosa is a savory crepe. Traditional dosa usually takes many hours to prepare ( from soaking the ingredients overnight to grinding them, fermenting them etc.), however rava dosa can be made in under
30 minutes . One of the websites my sister often refers to has a good recipe for it (
the chutney life)

Ingredients 
Sooji ( rava / cream of wheat)- 1/2 cup
Rice flour - 1/2 cup 
Maida ( all purpose flour)- 1/4 cup
Plain yogurt - 1/4 cup

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Black peppercorns - 1 tsp 
Asafoetida - 1/2 tsp 
Curry leaves - 10
1/2 Onion cut into small pieces 
Green chilly - 1 deseeded and cut into pieces 
Water -3 cups 
Salt to taste 

Instructions :
  1. Mix the sooji, rice flour, maida, yogurt, onion, cumin , black peppercorn, asafoetida, curry leaves together and pour a cup of the water and mix it.






  2. Keep adding water until the batter is watery - the consistency of milk. Add salt to taste.
  3. Let the batter sit for atleast 20 minutes 
  4. Place a griddle/ flat pan/ tawa on the stove on medium heat and let it heat up. Splash the batter on the hot pan in a circle so that there are holes in the dosa. Add oil on the sides so the dosa doesn’t stick to the pan. 
  5. Let it cook until the bottom is golden brown 
  6. Then use a turner to flip it over and let the other side cook 
  7. Now the rava dosa is ready to serve with coconut chutney or sambar 







  8. Here is a video that shows how to splash the dosa and make the rava dosa on tawa
