Rava Dosa / crispy semolina pancake


Rava Dosa is a crispy pancake of South India. It is a derivative of the popular Dosa. This variety of dosa does not require fermentation. It is usually considered as a light meal which can be served for breakfast or dinner.

Ingredients: 
Semolina/ Sooji rava/ Farina- 1 cup 
Maida / All purpose flour- 1/2 cup
Rice flour- 1 cup
Ginger- 1 inch (chopped)
Green Chillies- 2-3
Cumin seeds- 1-2 tsp
Crushed black pepper- 1 tsp
Few broken cashew nuts (optional)
salt to taste
water
oil / ghee to make dosa

Preparation:
Mix the above ingredients with water and bring it to butter milk consistency. Heat a flat pan and sprinkle the batter evenly on the pan with your hand. Add ghee or oil  and cook it on a medium high flame. You would get a crispy Rava Dosa. Rava Dosa can be served with coconut chutney and sambar.

Suggestion: Finely chopped cabbage can be used as a topping for the dosa.

    Whenever we go to a South Indian restaurant, we always order for rawa dosa! Your recipe looks just perfect and your dosa has come out so thin! It needs a lot of practice, isn't it?
