Ingredients

• 1 cup Ragi flour
• 0.5 cup Rice flour
• 0.25 cup Sooji (semolina)
• 0.5 cup Yogurt
• 1.5 cups Water
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 small, finely chopped Green chilies
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 medium, finely chopped Onion
• 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Coriander leaves
• 1 teaspoon, grated Ginger
• 1 for greasing Cooking oil spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ragi flour, rice flour, and sooji.

Step 2

Add yogurt, salt, and water to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly to form a smooth, lump-free batter of pouring consistency. If the batter appears too thick, add a little more water.

Step 3

Stir in finely chopped green chilies, cumin seeds, chopped onion, coriander leaves, and grated ginger into the batter.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to allow the sooji to absorb some moisture and thicken slightly.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick dosa pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking oil spray.

Step 6

Pour a ladleful of batter onto the heated pan, gently spreading it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift and the dosa turns golden brown. Drizzle a few drops of oil along the edges, if necessary.

Step 8

Flip the dosa and cook the other side for about 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the dosa from the pan and serve hot with chutney or sambar of your choice.

Step 10

Repeat the process with the remaining batter. Ensure the pan is lightly greased each time before pouring a new dosa.
