Ingredients

• 1 cup Semolina (Rava)
• 1 cup Rice flour
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Curd (Yogurt)
• 3 cups Water
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (crushed)
• 2 pieces Green chilies (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
• 10 leaves Curry leaves (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine semolina, rice flour, and all-purpose flour.

Step 2

Add the curd to the dry ingredients and mix well.

Step 3

Gradually add water to the mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps, until you have a smooth, thin batter. The consistency should be thinner than regular dosa batter.

Step 4

Now add cumin seeds, crushed black pepper, chopped green chilies, grated ginger, curry leaves, coriander leaves, and salt to the batter. Mix well.

Step 5

Set aside the batter to rest for 10-15 minutes.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick or cast-iron dosa pan on medium-high heat. Ensure the pan is hot before making dosas.

Step 7

Lightly grease the pan with a few drops of oil using a brush or paper towel.

Step 8

Pour a ladleful of batter from the edges towards the center of the pan. Allow the batter to spread naturally—do not try to spread it with the ladle.

Step 9

Sprinkle a little oil around the edges and on top of the dosa.

Step 10

Cook until the edges start lifting from the pan and the dosa turns golden brown and crispy.

Step 11

Carefully lift the dosa with a spatula, fold it if desired, and transfer to a plate.

Step 12

Repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 13

Serve hot rava dosa with coconut chutney and sambar.
