Instant Rawa Dosa

Preparation Time - 5 Min                            Cooking Time - 15 Min                       Serves - 2

Ingredients :

Rawa (semolina or fine Sooji) - 1/2 Cup

All purpose flour (plain flour or maida) - 1/4 cup

Rice flour - 1/4 cup

Salt - 1/2 tsp/to taste

Finely chopped cilantro - 1 Tbsp

Finely chopped green chili - 1

Water - 2 Cup

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Finely chopped onion - 1

Oil/Ghee - 1 Tbsp

Method :

1) Mix rawa, maida and rice flour in a bowl. Make a thin batter by adding little water at a time.
    The batter should be thin like butter milk. Make sure there are no lumps in batter.

2) Add cumin seeds, salt and chopped cilantro and green chilies.

3) Heat griddle and add 1 tsp oil/ghee. Add 1/2 tbsp of chopped onion on and now sprinkle the batter on griddle. I prefer to sprinkle with hands.
    You can also use spoon to spread the batter but that may make the dosa think and soft.

5) Add oil/ghee on sides of dosa if required. Let it cook for 2-3 mins, till golden brown on griddle side.
    Rawa dosa takes little more time to cook than normal rice dosa.

6) Serve hot with coconut chutney, dosa bhaji or sambar.
