Dosa with rice and urad flour

My household is a big fan of Dosa. But making dosa is a long process. You can't just think you want to eat it and make it then and there. It needs "pre thinking". At least planning a day ahead. Sometimes it is not possible and you absolutely want to eat dosa  right then. That's when making it with the flours instead of with the legumes comes in handy.

And this recipe is absolutely great. It turns out to be exactly like the once made with soaked dal and rice. They are crispy and yummy. Do try when in a time crunch or just when you are craving hot crispy dosas

Dosa with Rice and Urad Flour (Indian crepes made with rice and black gram flour)
Instant Dosa
Ingredients:

  1. 1/4 cup flattened rice ground to fine powder
  2. 1 cup rice flour
  3. 1/2 cup urad dal flour
  4. 1/2-3/4 teaspoon each of salt, baking soda
  5. water as need to make thin batter
  6. oil for frying
Mix all the powders together. Add water little by little ( up to 2 cups) and make a thin batter. 

Heat a griddle and test with a drop of water. If it sizzles then the griddle is ready. Add a ladle of batter in the center and spread it into a circle getting bigger and bigger with a light hand. Add oil to the edges. Let fry for 2-3 minutes and when the sides lift up turn the dosa and fry for 1 more minute on the other side. Serve with your favorite chutney or Potato Curry
