About Dosa batter

Dosa batter is a fermented mixture primarily made from rice and urad dal (split black gram), originating from South Indian cuisine. This versatile base is used to prepare dosa, a popular savory crepe-like dish. The fermentation process enhances its nutritional profile, increasing digestibility and promoting gut health due to probiotics. Rich in carbohydrates, dosa batter provides a quick energy source, while the urad dal offers protein and essential minerals like iron and magnesium. It is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for people with gluten sensitivities. While healthy, moderation is key; dosas made from traditional batter can be high in calories when paired with excessive oil or heavy fillings. For a more nutritious option, some versions incorporate millet or oats. Overall, dosa batter is celebrated not only for its culinary versatility but also for its ability to fit into a balanced diet when prepared thoughtfully.
