Onion Rava Dosa
Instant dosa recipe with semolina, rice flour, all-purpose flour, onion
Ingredients
- ½ cup rava / semolina
- ½ cup rice flour
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour / maida
- 1 small-sized onion finely chopped
- 2 green chillies chopped
- ½ inch ginger grated
- Few curry leaves
- ¾ tsp black peppercorn
- ½ tsp cumin seeds / jeera
- Pinch of asafoetida / perungayam / hing
- Salt to taste
- Sesame oil / nallennai
Instructions
- In a large bowl add rava, rice flour, maida, asafoetida, onion, green chillies, ginger, curry leaves, pepper, cumin seeds, salt and mix well with a whisk.
- Now add 2 ½ to 3 cups water and mix well with whisk to make a thin flowing batter without any lumps.
- Heat a dosa tawa over high heat and let it become hot. Pour a ladle full of batter in a circular motion starting from the outer edges and fill the gap in the center.
- Drizzle 1-2 tsp of oil around and over the dosa. Cook in medium heat till the dosa turns crisp and golden. Fold dosa and serve immediately.
Notes
- Make dosa immediately after making the batter. There is no need to rest the batter.
- You can use a cast iron tawa or non stick pan to make dosa. No need to grease the pan before making dosa.
- Mix the batter well before making each dosa as the ingredients would have settled down.
- After making each dosa, turn up the heat and wait for the tawa to get hot before pouring the batter.
- Rava tends to soak water. So if the batter becomes thick after making few dosas, add little more water and adjust the consistency.
