Ingredients

• 1 cup Semolina (Rava/Sooji)
• 0.5 cup Rice flour
• 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Low-sodium baking powder
• 0.5 cup Plain yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Green chilies, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 3 cups Water
• 3 tablespoons Oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine semolina, rice flour, and all-purpose flour with the low-sodium baking powder.

Step 2

Add plain yogurt to the dry ingredients and mix well to form a thick batter.

Step 3

Gradually add water to the batter, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. The batter should be thin and pourable.

Step 4

Stir in chopped green chilies, grated ginger, coriander leaves, black pepper, and cumin seeds.

Step 5

Allow the batter to rest for about 15 minutes to let the flavors meld and the semolina absorb some moisture.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa pan over medium heat and drizzle a little oil over the surface.

Step 7

Once the pan is hot, pour a ladleful of batter from a height onto the pan in a circular motion. The batter will spread on its own and form a lace-like pattern.

Step 8

Drizzle a few drops of oil around the edges of the dosa and cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift and the base turns golden brown.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Remove from the skillet and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.

Step 11

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, stirring the batter each time before making a new dosa.
