Ingredients

• 1 cup Ragi flour
• 0.5 cup Rice flour
• 0.5 cup Plain yogurt
• 1 cup Water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 small Onion, finely chopped
• 1 small Green chilies, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ragi flour, rice flour, and yogurt.

Step 2

Gradually add water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously to form a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be thin, similar to pancake batter.

Step 3

Add salt and cumin seeds to the batter, and mix well.

Step 4

Cover the bowl and let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to allow the flours to absorb the water completely.

Step 5

After 10 minutes, mix the batter again and adjust the consistency with a little more water if needed.

Step 6

Stir in the finely chopped onion and green chilies.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa pan over medium heat. Once hot, drizzle a few drops of oil and spread it using a kitchen paper towel or brush.

Step 8

Pour a ladleful of batter onto the pan and spread it evenly in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.

Step 9

Drizzle a little oil around the edges of the dosa and cook for 2-3 minutes on medium heat until the bottom is crispy and golden brown.

Step 10

Flip the dosa carefully and cook the other side for another minute.

Step 11

Remove the dosa from the pan and serve immediately with your choice of chutney or sambar.

Step 12

Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
