Dosa means different things to different people. For some it is just a breakfast that they can have once every few days. For some it is an everyday affair, gulping down dosas in darshinis and hotels day in day out. And for some ‘the dosa’ is an emotion, it is the crisp sound of breaking the dosa and dunking it in chutney or sambar. It makes them just happy! I borderline between the 2nd an 3rd categories, just love dosas. But grinding dosa batter is not child’s play. This urad dal flour and rice flour dosa comes to your rescue.
If you are craving for dosa the next day for your breakfast (sometimes I dream about dosa, that is why borderline :)), you do not have to wait, 8 hours soak-time, then grind (an uphill task for a few & I don’t blame them), 8 hours fermentation. It indeed takes a lot of time to dish out good dosas. This urad dal flour and rice flour dosa definitely ticks a few boxes.
Although this urad dal flour and rice flour dosa might not give the authentic taste, it will definitely soothe some dosa cravings. They turn out crisp and soft and with some butter on top, dosa is transformed to a nice breakfast. At the least you get fresh homemade breakfast, that much I can assure you. Having said that, dosa standards can be very high, this is pretty good too!
No-grind and no-soak is the USP of this dosa! Try more dosa recipes from FOI:
