Rice Flour Dosa

More about dosas here. This variation on the traditional recipe uses a batter made with non-fermented rice flour. It is quick, easy and delicious!

Ingredients:
Rice flour - 1 cup
Rava (semolina) - 2 tbsp (optional)
Onion, finely chopped - 1 small
Jeera (cumin seeds) - 1/2 tsp
Red chili powder - 1/2 tsp (can be replaced with finely chopped green chillies or red pepper flakes)
Coriander leaves, chopped fine - a handful
Salt - to taste
Oil - 2-3 tbsp

Cooking time: 10 minutes

Method:
Mix all the dry ingredients together and add enough water to make a batter of pancake consistency. Heat a pan and spread a few drops of oil onto it. Spread one ladle of batter onto the pan (there should be enough batter to make a thick dosa), dribble some oil along the sides of the pan and some oil onto the dosa (I used a spray can). Cover the pan with a lid and let fry for 2 minutes. Turn the dosa over and dribble oil down the sides once again. Cover and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Serve the dosas with your favourite chutney or sambar.
