Question

What is the Correct measurement of Rice & dhall to make Dosa?

Answer 1

I think 1 glass of rice needs 1 glass of dhall  ...my mom will make it lik this !!!

Answer 2

SADA DOSA (Plain)

1 cup plain rice

1 cup parboiled rice

1 cup white udad dal

1/2 tsp. methi (fenugreek) seeds

1/2 tsp soda bi carbonate

1/2 cup curds

1tbsp + ghee or oil as preferred

water for grinding



How to make:

Wash the rices and dal together. Add plenty of water and methi seeds. Allow to soak for 7-8 hours or overnight. Rewash the rice by draining the water 2-3 times. Grind to a paste. Rawa -like grains should be felt in the batter. Add soda bicarb and salt and mix well. Keep aside in a warm place for 8-10 hours. Beat the curds well. Add to the batter, add more water if required. The consistency of the batter should be thick enough to thickly coat on a spoon when dipped. Heat the iron griddle or non-stick tawa well. Pour a spoonful of batter in the centre, spread with the back of the spoon to a thin round. Pour a tsp. of ghee or oil over it. Remove with spatula when crisp. Serve hot with chutney and / or sambar.

Answer 3

For regular dosa, it is 1 part urad dal to 2 parts rice.  If you like crispier dosa then increase the rice to 3 parts.  Likewise, if you like softer dosa, then increase the amount of urad dal.  Hope this helps.
