Directions
Sub-Title: A Simple Recipe For Delicious And Soft Dosas
Ingredients List:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour (Maida)
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– ¾ cup water
– 1 tablespoon ghee or oil
– 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
– ½ teaspoon garam masala powder
– ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions:
1. Mix the dry ingredients – flour, salt, and spices – together in a large bowl. Add the water slowly while mixing until you form a soft ball of dough. Cover the bowl and let rest for at least 1 hour.
2. After one hour, divide the dough into four equal parts. Each part should be about the size of a golf ball. Roll out each portion into a thin pancake using a rolling pin.
3. Heat the ghee or oil on medium heat in a heavy frying pan. When hot, cook the dosa using the back of a wooden spoon, tilting it slightly towards you as you press down firmly. The key is to use enough pressure but not too much that it becomes crispier than what you desire. If necessary, adjust your timing depending on how thick or thin you prefer your dosas.
4. Flip the dosa over when its bottom side is golden brown, about 30 seconds to a minute. Cook until both sides have turned golden brown and remove from the pan.
5. Serve immediately with sambar, chutney, or any other accompaniments of your choice. Enjoy!
Note: This recipe makes approximately 4 large, 8 small, or 12 mini dosas. It is suitable for beginners and can be made quickly and easily in under half an hour.
