Dosa / dosai is a fermented crepe made from rice and urad dal. It's a staple dish in southern India. It's also well known in Sri Lanka., Malaysia, Singapore and Myanmar(where they call it as Thosay). It is served with sambar, coconut chutney, pudhina chutney.
I always wanted to make hotel style crispy dosa at home. But failed at the end as the batter we make at home was little bit different from them. So I go on trying the perfect way of preparing and finally made one like that. Today I'm going to tell you the secret of this recipe.
Here goes the recipe.
Hotel style crispy dosa
Ingredients:
Rice - 1/2 cup plus 2tblspn
Urad dal - 3/4 cup
Rice flour - 1/2 cup
