Process of making dosa:

• Pour a ladleful of batter on a preheated griddle.



• Spread it with the bottom of the ladle onto the griddle to a round shape. The dosa should be thicker than dosa. How much thicker depends on individual taste. My husband likes a very thick dosa and I like dosa just thicker than normal dosa.



• Top it with chopped green chilies, onions, grated carrot & chopped coriander leaves.




• Press the topping with a spatula.



• Add tsp on oil on the rims and top of the dosa.



• When the bottom of the dosa is cooked reverse the dosa very gently.



• Again add one more tsp of oil on the rims of the dosa.



• When it is done… transfer the dosa to a serving plate.



• Have it with Peanuts Coconut Chutney or Channa Coconut Chutney.
