Dosa is one of the most common breakfast in a South India served hot with some chutney and sambar. I think making crispy perfect dosa itself is an art. I still remember the first time I made a dosa and it all got stuck on the griddle. Then, my mother taught me few tricks which helped to make some delicious crispy dosa. Dosa cones are specially loved by kids.Β So,Β lets learn to make dosa..
Firstly soak rice and lentils in water. White lentil is missing in the picture but soak that too π
Grind rice and lentil to make a flowing batter..
Leave batter for fermentation.
Serve it hot with chutney and sambar.

Read the complete recipe given below and make crispy ghee roast dosa.
- Parboiled rice/idli rice β 3 cups
- Raw Rice β 1 cup
- Moong dhuli/Yellow lentil/pasiparappu β 1/2 cup
- Urad dal/White lentil – 1/2 cup
- Fenugreek seeds β 2 tsp
- Salt to taste
- Ghee/Clarified butter to make dosa
- Clean and soak the rice and yellow lentil along with fenugreek seeds in some water for 4 hours.
- Now grind the soaked lentil and rice in your food processor with enough water to make a smooth batter.
- Transfer the content in a pan and add some salt to taste and mix it well. Set it aside overnight or for minimum 4 hours for fermentation.
- Bring the batter to pouring consistency. If it is thick, add more water and mix well.
- Heat the non-stick griddle/tawa for a minute. Grease it with little oil.
- Check if the griddle is ready by sprinkling little water. If it gives an oozing sound, then the griddle is ready. Lower the flame and wipe the griddle with a newspaper.
- Scoop a ladleful of batter and pour it over the griddle and immediately spread it in circular motion to make a round shape dosa.
- Drizzle ghee and let it get cooked on low or medium flame for a minute.
