A very popular Indian dish is the Dosa; Mainly a South Indian Dough food, It is popular all over India.It is similar to the pancake. Pronounced as Dosai and Dosay, it is another Indian fried bread recipe you want to try again and again, From the famous Masala Dosa to the lesser known Adai, there are lots of varieties to choose from
Quote:

* 1 cup plain rice
* 1 cup parboiled rice
* 1/4 cup white urad dal
* 1/2 tsp. methi (fenugreek) seeds
* 1 /2 tsp soda bi carbonate
* 1/2 cup curds
* 10-12 tsps. ghee or oil as preferred
* water for grinding


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.
So want to try them, they look awesome, especially the filled ones.
