Direction

1. Take all the ingredients in a bowl and mix water with it. Use a beater for easy mixing. The batter should be very thin and running consistency. For best result rest the batter for 30 minutes. After resting, check the consistency of the batter and if needed, add the water.

2. Heat a non stick dosa pan. The pan should be very hot/ Pour the watery batter. Apply ghee or oil.

3. Let it cook in medium flame until dosa becomes brown in color from bottom. It will take some time on medium flame but be patient. If you cook on flame you may not get the crispy dosa. Do not flip the dosa, when done from the bottom, just fold and serve.

4. Another method of poring batter is with hands. Sprinkle with your hand quickly all over. This method gives very nice and lacy dosa.
