As MMM asked me what Rava Masala Dosa was, I thought, I'd better put it on here, for those too who enjoy Indian dishes. Subville, its for you too. ![]()
RAVA MASALA DOSA:
INGREDIENTS
* 1 cup Sooji (Semolina or Rawa)
* 1 cup rice flour
* 1/2 cup flour
* 1 cup yogurt
* 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 1 cup oil
* 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
* 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
* 10-15 curry leaves (see note below)
* 2-3 green chilies chopped
* 1/2 teaspoon hing (asafetida - see note)
* 1/2 cup finely chopped coriander (cilantro) leaves
* 1 onion finely chopped
* Salt to taste
METHOD
Mix the first five ingredients and salt. Mix with enough into a stiff batter and set aside for 1-2 hours.
Heat 2 tbs oil, add the mustard seeds. When they splutter, add cumin seeds till they sizzle (this should a be 30-40 seconds), quickly add the curry leaves and hing and pour over the batter.
Add about 3 additional cups of water and mix with coriander leaves and onions. Note: the batter should be fairly thin.
On a non-stick skillet, add a few drops of oil. Pour one or two ladlefuls of the batter, and allow this to cook slowly. It is good to start for a couple of minutes on high flame and then lower the flame and allow the dosa to cook slowly (about 7-10 minute).
Gently turn and cook on the other side for a couple of minutes. The dosa should be golden brown and crisp in appearance. Serve hot with chutney.
Serves: 4 - 6
If anyone tries to make it, let me know how it turned out.
