Quick Dosa - Dosa in 20 mins



Quick Dosa

Dosa is a evergreen dish. Can be had for breakfast lunch or dinner. Can also be had as snack in the evening.
There are a variety or Dosas.But most of them require the batter to the fermented for aorudn 6 hrs.The wait kills me.

My mom suggested this simple and quick recipe.Almost the same ingredients, rice but no fermentation required.And your dosa is ready in 20 mins. Cool ain't it?
I just love this Dosa.

How to prepare Dosa in 20 mins, with no fermentation involved?

Ingredients:
1. Rice Flour - 3 cups
2. Fresh grated cocont - 1 cup
3. Water - 5 cups
4. Baking soda - a pinch
5. Salt as per taste
6. Oil - 2 tbsp

Preparation:
1. Mix all the ingredients except oil.

2. Heat a flat pan (tawa).Slightly apply oil.
3. When the Pan is hot, slowly pour the batter.
Note : I normally use a small glass, as it is easier to hold and pour using a glass.
If you are using a non-stick pan , then you may avoid applying oil.


4. You will see pores on the dosa. slightly apply oil on top of the dosa.
5. Using a flat wooden/steel spatula remove the dosa from the pan.

Quick dosa tastes yummy with chutneys. I like it with Coconut-mint chutney.
You definitely can't stop with one.
However this one's definitely not for the calorie-conscious.



Tips: If you are using normal pan/tawa, the dosa may stick to the pan and you may find it difficult to remove it from the tawa once its ready. In such case,
1. Heat the Pan,splash 1 tbsp of water once the pan is hot and slightly apply oil.
or
2. Heat the Pan,cut a small onion into half and rub the onion over the pan.
