Method To Make Hotel Style Onion Rava Dosa Recipe

- Crush the peppercorns in mortar and pestle.
- Heat a pan with oil, add mustard, urad dal and curry leaves, after it splutters, add grated ginger, chopped onion, chopped green chillies, fry well for few mins and add it to the batter, then add cumin, crushed pepper, required water to the batter and mix it. The batter should be watery.
- Heat dosa pan, when it is smoking hot, take laddle full of batter and start pouring the batter from outside rim of tawa towards center.
- Add 1 tsp of oil around the dosa. Larger holes will appear in this dosa, do not fill the holes, if you add extra batter to cover the holes, then your dosa won’t be crispy.
- Cook the dosa on other side and drizzle some oil around dosa, wait until it turn crisp.
- Hot, crispy onion rava roast is ready to serve with your favourite chutneys like tiffin sambar, tomato chutney or coconut chutney
Tips
- If you don’t want green chillies, just add black pepper alone.
- To get crispy dosa, the batter should be watery in consistency.
- Always mix the batter before pouring dosa, because rava will get settle at the bottom.
- Always use fine rava like bombay rava.
- If you are health conscious, add wheat flour in place of maida.
- For buttermilk – add 1/4 cup of sour yoghurt (curd) to 2 cups of water.
- I recommend to use iron skillet instead of non stick dosa pan.
- If dosa sticks to dosa pan, add some more rice flour to the batter.
