👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Grind oats to a fine powder using the chutney jar of mixie or a food processor. Set aside.
2. 2Mix Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground oats, semolina, rice flour, curd and a cup of water to make a smooth paste. Add cumin seeds, onion, ginger, green chillies, curry leaves, coriander leaves, salt and another 1 1/2 cups water and mix well. Use only 2 ½ cups of water total initially. Add the remaining half cup if necessary while adjusting the consistency.
3. 3Rest Batter: Ensure there are no lumps and the batter is well mixed. The batter should be loose and watery. It should resemble a runny consistency. Set aside for 20 minutes.
4. 4Heat Pan: Heat a tawa or non-stick pan over medium heat. Drizzle half a teaspoon of oil or ghee, spread it around and wipe off the excess with a paper towel or kitchen cloth.
5. 5Pour Batter: Check the consistency of the batter before pouring. Use a deep ladle and mix the batter well every time before making a dosa. Once the tawa is hot enough, pour the batter starting from the periphery and then moving in. Do not spread the batter, just pour more to fill any gaps.
6. 6Cook Dosa: Cook on medium flame for 2-3 minutes. Drizzle oil or ghee on the sides and the gaps. When the dosa is cooked enough, the edges will leave the pan easily and it will start to look golden brown. At this point flip the dosa and cook for another minute. Flip it back, fold and serve hot. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with your choice of chutney or sambar.
