Chana Dosa – Kondakadalai Dosai Recipe - Chickpeas Dosa

Chana dosa
Kabuli chana dosa/Chickpeas dosa / Kondakadalai dosai in Tamil. This recipe was shared to me by Suchi Vasan, my readerHappy.She shared this dosa recipe along with a side dish – Kara chutney. When she sent the recipe, I thought it would be more like our mixed lentil adai. But I was wrong. Its completely different from adai batter in ingredients and procedure.Its a very healthy, protein rich dosa recipe with more quantity of white chana and less rice. Batter should be ground like our usual dosa batter.This dosa can be made instantly, no fermentation needed. It comes out very soft and tasty. Sendhil & myself loved it a lot. Its a very good and healthy breakfast choice for adults and kids as well. I have decided to make this dosa very often in my kitchen.In fact I loved to have kabuli chana in the form of dosa more than sundal or gravy.Thanks a lot Suchi for sharing this yummy, healthy dosa variety with me.Friends, do try this dosa and share your feedback here. I guess this recipe works for kala chana/Black chana too.Lets see how to make Kabuli chana dosa recipe.HERE is the link for Kara Chutney.

Poha Dosa - Aval Dosai - Instant Atukula Dosa Recipe

Poha dosa recipe
I have heard about Andhra’s Instant atukula dosa (Atukula Attu in Telugu, Avalakki Dosa in Kannada, Poha Dosa in Hindi, Aval Dosai in Tamil, Flattened rice in English) but I haven’t tried at home. For the first time, I tried this soft and spongy poha dosa yesterday for my in-laws as both of them have tooth problem. It came out super soft and everyone loved it at home with tomato chutney as side dish. 

This dosa batter is made without urad dal and the best part is that the batter doesn’t need over night fermentation. It can be made instantly after grinding. This aval dosai is sure a welcome change from the aval upma. I followed the recipe from Sailu’s blog but I altered the quantity of ingredients and made it without adding cooking soda/ baking soda. This recipe works great for this summer season. I prepared the dosa batter in the afternoon and made the dosa without adding baking soda for dinner. I gave a resting time of 6 hours for the batter. So I have mentioned it as instant poha dosa as I din't ferment the batter overnight. Also you can make this dosa instantly by adding baking soda. 

Do try it for your breakfast or dinner. You will love it and make it very often. Lets see how to make Andhra special South Indian Aval dosa recipe with step by step photos.

Puffed Rice Dosa – Pori Dosa - Soft, Sponge Dosa Recipe Without Urad dal

Puffed rice dosa
I must thank my reader Suchi Vasan for sharing this super soft, spongy puffed rice dosa recipe ( Arisi pori dosai). When she told me about the ingredients of this dosa, I just couldn’t believe it. Its just a two ingredient recipe and that too a dosa without urad dal. Puffed rice ( Arisi pori in Tamil, Mandakki in Kannada, Murmura/bhel in Hindi, Borugula in Telugu) is the star ingredient for this recipe. As I haven’t tried any puffed rice recipes other than Kara pori, I got tempted to try this dosa & tried it on the same day. This dosa is not an instant version.Its batter needs to be fermented really well to enjoy its best taste. As Suchi said dosas came out very well, ultra soft and spongy with lots of holes in it. I usually make sponge dosa adding poha/aval & methi seeds. But this recipe does magic just with the puffed rice. You can grind the batter easily in a mixie.With garlic chutney as side dish, it tasted great!! Now lets see how to make this soft, sponge dosa using puffed rice/arisi pori.

Check out my other puffed rice recipes below.

My friend Shalini used to tell me about her Karam dosa recipe. So I just used those spices for grinding this batter. It came out very well with a nice color as I expected. With coconut chutney as side dish, we loved it a lot. I was very happy that I could make a spicy, yummy, flavorful dosa variety adding a healthy vegetable.

We need very less soaking & preparation time for the batter and we don’t need to use grinder for grinding the batter. An Indian mixie/mixer would do. It ferments beautifully and this batter yields crispy, golden colored dosa as you see in the pictures. 

I made plain dosa adding less oil for Sendhil, Cone/Roast dosa adding ghee for my daughter and thick uttapam kind of Set dosa for me.

  • You can add 1/4 tsp of methi seeds to get nice flavored dosa.
  • Do not make the batter too thick or too thin.The consistency should be like our regular idli, dosa batter.
  • You can also use urad dal flour instead of grinding urad dal. Use the same ratio.
  • Add oil or ghee generously to get a shiny look in the dosa.
  • Do not cook the dosa in very high flame. It will burn quickly. Cook the dosa in medium flame patiently. Adjust the flame whenever needed.

Rava Dosa Recipe(Instant Version) - Crispy Rava Dosa Recipe

Instant Rava dosa recipe
Rava Dosa is one of the most popular South Indian breakfast recipes . Crispy, hotel style Rava dosa recipe is Sendhil’s most favourite dosa varieties. This dosa is very popular in Karnataka and Tamil nadu. Whenever we go to restaurant, I order plain uttapam for myself & his choice would be mostly rava dosa or onion rava dosa .As it is my man’s favourite, I have tried making this dosa many times in my kitchen to impress him. But most of my attempts were flop shows. It may be due to the wrong proportions of rava, rice flour, maida or the consistency of  rava dosa batter might not be right. 

 When I told this to my friend Shalini, she suggested her fail proof, instant rava dosa recipe which she has been successfully making it for years. I tried it yesterday for our Sunday breakfast.It came out unbelievably great! It looked and tasted like restaurant style rava dosa. Sendhil loved it a lot and had more dosa. I became very happy, excited and I immediately called my dear Shalu to thank her. I must also thank Vahchef for some additional tips I learnt by watching his video.Friends, do try this recipe. I am sure you won’t be disappointed with the results even if you are beginner. 

Also don’t forget to follow the tips I have shared in this post which helps you to make perfect crispy rava dosa. I always feel coconut chutney is the best side dish for rava dosa. Some people love to have it with tomato chutney and sambar. Serve it with your choice :) Some of my readers are asking me to post rava dosa recipe without rice flour and maida. I am working on it. Once I make it right, I will post it here.  Ok, lets see how to make crispy rava dosa recipe with step by step photos.

Crispy Rava Dosa Recipe

Rava dosa recipe-Instant Version


Rava dosa recipe Crispy, hotel style Instant rava dosa recipe for breakfast
Cuisine: Indian
Category: Breakfast
Serves: 12 
Prep time: 15 Minutes
Cook time: 3 Minutes
Total time: 18 Minutes


INGREDIENTS

 1 cup = 250 ml

  • Rice flour – 1 cup
  • Unroasted Rava – 1/2 cup
  • Maida / all purpose flour – 1/4 cup
  • Water – 3 cups + 1/4 cup( add 2 tbsp more in the middle)
  • Curd – 1/4 cup ( semi solid)
  • Salt – as needed
  • Cumin seeds/Jeera – 1/2 tsp
  • Pepper – 1 tsp (crushed)
  • Green chilli – 1no ( finely chopped)
  • Coriander leaves  & curry leaves – Few ( finely chopped)
  • Asafetida/Hing – as needed
  • Ghee or cooking oil - as needed to drizzle dosas

HOW TO MAKE RAVA DOSA - METHOD

  • In a wide bowl, take the curd and rava. To this add rice flour, maida & salt. Add 3 cups of water & mix well with a whisk. Now add the cumin seeds, crushed pepper, finely chopped green chillies, coriander leaves, hing & curry leaves. Mix well without lumps. Check for batter consistency. Leave it for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • In the mean time, you can grind coconut chutney for side dish. After 10 minutes, check the batter, it would be thick slightly. So add 1/4 cup of water. Mix well & check whether the batter is right. I have given the water quantity I used for this recipe.Take it as a reference & adjust the quantity. The consistency of batter may not be correct in the first attempt.You will come to know the right consistency only after making the first dosa.( The first dosa may not come out perfectly crispy. 
  • Based on the texture of dosa,add little more water & make the second dosa. So it comes by trial & error only. You should get the perfect one at least for 3 rd dosa if you are a beginner.)
  • Heat a dosa pan.I used iron pan here. Non-stick also works fine. Dosa pan should be well heated but not smoky. Grease the pan with oil. 
  • Hold the ladle 15cms away from the pan & pour a ladleful of batter around the corner of dosa pan. Make a circle. Again take some little batter & fill the inner portions.i.e. you should pour the batter in a circular motion from outer to inner portion of pan.Do not fill the holes. Instead drizzle some ghee in the holes.
Instant Rava Dosa Recipe
  • Keep the flame medium to medium high. Drizzle a tsp of ghee all over the dosa. Cover the pan with a lid & cook for sometime till you see the dosa turning crispy & golden brown. I covered the pan with my idli pot lid. 
Instant Rava Dosa Recipe
  • Do not flip the dosa. Just fold it & serve immediately with coconut chutney & sambar. Before making the next dosa, mix the batter very well because Rava may settle down in the bottom of bowl. If you feel the batter is thickened, add 2 tbsp of water. Mix well & make dosa. Keep the flame high till you pour the batter & as soon as you pour the batter, reduce the flame to medium & cover cook as mentioned above. Repeat the same procedure for all dosas.
Instant rava dosa
  • Here is a rava dosa picture I made using non-stick dosa pan.

Enjoy !




Note

  • For variations & for health reasons, you can follow the same recipe without maida. It comes out well.
  • The consistency of rava dosa batter is very important to make crispy, lacy dosas. So add water as needed.
  • Cooking in medium flame for more time gives you crispy dosa. Cooking in high flame makes the dosa brown & uncooked in the middle.
  • Covering the pan while cooking helps to cook the dosa quick & gives you nice uniform golden color.
  • you should mix the batter really well every time before making dosa. The batter may thicken after you make 3-4 dosas. So add 2 tbsp water & thin down the batter.
  • Adding ghee while making dosas gives nice flavor & restaurant touch. So use it as per your wish.
  • For making onion rava dosa,sprinkle finely chopped onions in greased tawa. Then pour the batter. Onions will be cooked well.
  • To make fruit and nut rava dosa, sprinkle finely chopped cashews, badam & tutti frutti over the pan and pour the batter. Cook in medium flame.
