Mini Dosa

OK.. Dosa batter is waiting for me to put Dosas on the blog. Most of the Indians know how to prepare Dosa... but I'm adding the instructions to make the blog post complete for others:

• I use multipurpose Dosa batter for preparing Dosa, Uttappam, Idli, Masala Dosa and Ponganaalu.
• As the consistency of the batter is bit think, take the batter in a bowl, add little bit water and mix it well.
• Heat non-stick tawa and pour half a ladle of batter in the center and then spread it with the back of the ladle. Spread it from inside to the outside. 

• To make Dosa interesting for kids, make it small. Kids love mini Dosas over regular Dosas. This is a small trick to attract kid's attention.
• I don't like giving crispy Dosas to kids as they hardly fill their tummy. So make it bit thicker than regular Dosa. Instead of using too much oil, cover the Dosa for one minute. 
• Uncover Dosa and then add little bit oil or Ghee.

• When the dosa is red, turn the dosa and cook on the other side. 

 

• Dosa is ready!!

My kids love Dosa with Pappula podi (baked chana daal powder). It hardly takes any time to prepare and it's my favorite too. I use ghee for kids and Olive oil for big kids.

 

If there is chutney, spread the chutney over dosa. This makes it less messy for kids and keeps the plate clean for us to wash ;-).
