Ingredients:

1 cup Semolina (Rava/Sooji)
1/4 cup Rice Flour
1/4 cup All-purpose Flour (Maida)
1/2 cup Curd (Yogurt)
1.5 cups Water
1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
1/2 tsp Mustard Seeds
1/2 tsp Urad Dal (Split Black Gram)
1/2 tsp Chana Dal (Split Bengal Gram)
1-2 Green Chillies, finely chopped
A few Curry Leaves, chopped
1/2 inch Ginger, grated
Salt, to taste
Ghee, for cooking


Instructions:

Prepare the Batter:

In a mixing bowl, combine semolina, rice flour, all-purpose flour, and curd.
Gradually add water while whisking to avoid lumps. The batter should be smooth and flowing.
Allow the batter to rest for 15-20 minutes to enhance its texture.


Tempering:

In a small pan, heat ghee and add cumin seeds, mustard seeds, urad dal, chana dal, green chillies, grated ginger, and curry leaves.
Sauté until the dals turn golden brown and the mustard seeds start spluttering.
Incorporate this aromatic tempering into the dosa batter and mix thoroughly.


Adjust Consistency:

Check the batter's consistency, ensuring it is thin and pourable. Adjust with water if necessary.


Seasoning the Griddle (Tawa):

Heat a non-stick griddle or dosa tawa on medium heat. Sprinkle a few drops of water to test its readiness.


Making the Dosa:

Pour a ladle full of batter onto the center of the griddle.
Use the back of the ladle to spread the batter in a circular motion, forming a thin dosa.
Drizzle ghee over the dosa and cook on medium heat until the edges turn golden brown and crisp.


Serve Hot:

Fold the dosa in half or roll it and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.


Tips:

Enhance the flavor by adding finely chopped onions, grated carrots, or chopped coriander to the batter.
Adjust the quantity of green chillies according to your spice preference.
Ensure the griddle is adequately heated for that perfect crispy texture.
