Jain Version : Skip the onion and follow the recipe as is

Preparation Time : 10  mins
Cooking Time : approx 2 mins per dosa
Makes : 9 dosas
Complexity : medium






Ingredients
1 cup rava/ semolina - 180-200 gms approx
1 cup rice flour
1/2 cup maida
4 -5 cups water
finely chopped green chillies
finely chopped curry leaves
finely chopped corriander
1-2 tsp jeera/cumin
1 tsp pepper corns
pinch of asafoetida/hing
salt to taste
thinly sliced coconut bits / chopped cashewnuts (optional)
finely chopped onion ( optional)
Oil for roasting the dosa

Method

  • In a wide mixing bowl,add rava,rice flour and maida along with the water little by little and make a nice lump free batter.  The dough has to be runny . The consistency is shown in the video.
  • Add the green chillies,curry leaves,corriander,jeera,pepper ,asafoetida,coconut bits/cashews to the dough and mix well.
  • Heat a non stick tawa and pour this batter from outside to inside - no need to spread .
  • As you are spreading you can see the nice holes being formed on the dosa and begins to get cooked almost immediately and starts turning crsipy.
  • Drizzle few drops of oil around the dosa and a few drops in the center. 
  • No need to flip the dosa,this is generally cooked only on one side. Take it off and serve hot.


Tips

  1. The batter has to be runny else you will not get the lacy texture.
  2. Adjust water as you make dosas if you feel the batter has become thick because rava will absorb water as time progresses.
  3. Adjust salt if you happen to add water .
  4. Since the batter is runny,the water will be seen floating on top,so each time you make a dosa stir the batter well and then scoop out a ladle of batter and pour on the tava.
  5. Donot spread the batter as in case of regular dosas.
  6. You have to just pour the batter from inside out and not worry about the shape.
  7. To make Rava Onion Dosa,spread the onion after you pour the batter on the tava.
