Rava Dosa

I learnt to make this from my sister Padma Ranganathan.  I have been trying for so many years to make this and all the time my sister knew this dish and she taught me.

Ingredients:

Rava                        -  1 cup

Rice flour                 -  1 cup
Wheat flour(Atta)     -  1 cup
Pepper                    -  1 table spoon
Jeera                       -  1 table spoon
Asafoitida                -  1/2 tea spoon
Ghee or cooking for making dosa.
Salt to taste.

1.  Take the jeera and pepper in a mixer and grind it coarsely.  Peppers should remain large and visible.
2.  Take rava, rice flour, wheat flour, jeera pepper powder, salt and asafoitida in a bowl add water and mix it to form a watery consistency.
3.  Keep the mixture aside covered for about 4 - 5 hrs.
4.  If necessary add water and make it to a very watery consistency.
5.  Heat tawa and grease it with oil or ghee and pour a laddle of the batter.
6.  The batter should be poured from the edge of the tawa in circular way towards the centre and the ladle should not touch the tawa at all.  This is very important.  Only then the dosa will come properly.  Cook the dosa in low flame only.
7.  Pour 1 tea spoon of ghee or oil and turn and cook both the sides and remove from tawa.
8.  Repeat the process starting from greasing the tawa and cook in low flame only till dosa turns crispy.
9.  Serve hot with green chutney.
