Mixed Flour Instant Dosa

Hello Friends,


Another Blogging Marathon week. It is BM # 6 and I am doing Regional Specials again and will be posting 7 days of Rajasthani Delicacies. Today is Final Day 7 and here is my regional special for this day.

I was paired up with Kalyani and as she didn't have any Rajasthani Specials, I chose to pick a traditional South Indian Special and here is an amazing recipe of Mixed Flour Instant Dosa.

It caught my eye as it was an instant one and no need to soak, grind or ferment and all that lengthy process. So, without further ado, here is the recipe.

Mixed Flour Instant Dosa
Ingredients
Maida (All Purpose Flour) - 1 cup
Gehun ka Aata (Whole Wheat Flour) - 1 cup
Sooji (Semolina) - 1 cup
Chawal ka Aata (Rice Flour) - 1 cup
Tempering
Red Chili/Green Chili - 2, broken in pieces (for dry red one) or finely chopped (for green one)
Cumin Seeds - 1 tbsp
Mustard Seeds - 1 tbsp
Asafoetida - 1 pinch
Curry Leaves - a few leaves
Oil - 1 tbsp for tempering and more for making dosa
Preparation
  • Mix all dry flours in a big bowl.
  • Add 1 tbsp oil in a non-stick pan (small one) and add all tempering ingredients to it.
  • Once the seeds start spluttering, mix it in the mixed flour.
  • Add enough water and make it into a pouring consistency batter (thinner than pancake).
  • Heat griddle till hot.
  • Brush the griddle with some oil and then pour a big spoonful (1/4 cup or so) and spread in a circular motion till it is thinly spread like a crepe (it won't be as thin as crepe, but in that shape and motion).
  • spray some more oil on the sides and top of it. 
  • Cook till you start seeing the dosa separating from the griddle. 
  • Flip it and cook it on the other side as well till golden brown.
Serving
Serve it with your favorite chutney or podi.

That's all for now. Do check out what other BM bloggers are doing.
