1 tbs finely sliced curry leaves
2 tsp very finely chopped green chillies
1 tbs cumin seeds
1 tsp coarsely crushed black pepper
1 cup little diluted curds
About 2 cups of water
salt to taste
oil as needed
Method:
Mix the rice flour, all purpose flour and the rava.
Add the curds and enough water to form a pouring consistency.
Leave it aside for about 15 minutes.
Now mix in all the other ingredients , except the oil.
Now give every thing a proper mix.
If your batter is thick, add more water to get a pouring consistency.
Heat a dosai kal, it should not be very, very hot.
Now pour a ladle full of the dosai batter from the outward base
of the dosai kal. After that slowly fill in if you have major gaps.
Do not worry about the small , small holes.
Pour 1 tbs of oil over the dosai and cover it.
Let it cook on medium flame for about 1 to 2 minutes.
Now remove the cover and, increase the flame.
Cook for another 2 minutes till you see the dosai looking
brown here and there.
Remove the dosai, once you feel it is fully roasted.
The dosai should be served immediately to enjoy the crispiness.
Reduce the flame for a minute before you prepare the next dosai.
Always stir the mixture well before pouring the batter.
Serve it with any chutney or sambar.
This is how it should look on the kal:
