BM #87 Day 4 - 

Masala Ghavan is a simplified version of Uthappam and is an instant version. No soaking, No grinding and No fermentation. This recipe has origins in the Konkan region of Maharashtra.

This is as instant as it gets. I have never used garlic in any dosa/uthappam before and was surprised when my friend mentioned garlic as a 'must-add' ingredient. I must agree that the flavor changes altogether.

I felt it was a cross between besan ka Cheela and Rava Dosa. Also a glorified version of Neer Dosa. It was a very filling meal.

Recipe Source Shalaka
Ingredients - 

Rice flour 1/2 cup
Besan / Gram Flour 1/4 cup
Salt as needed
Yogurt 2 Tbsp (Sour preferred)
Garlic, grated 3-4 cloves
Green Chillies finely chopped as needed
Curry leaves, finely chopped 1 tsp
Coriander leaves, finely chopped 2 Tbsp
Oil 1 tsp + more for shallow frying



Method Of Preparation -


Mix all the ingredients including a teaspoon of the oil and add water gradually to make a watery batter. [I used about 1 1/2 cups of water].

Heat a griddle (my griddle is non stick one, 7 inches in diameter with raised edges), spray oil and pour the watery batter from the edges towards the center. [Typically that is how the batter is poured for Rava Dosa as well].

Cover and let it cook on medium heat for a couple of minutes.

Remove the cover, flip the dosa and let it cook on the other side as well.

Fold the dosa into quarters and remove from the pan.

Continue with the rest of the batter.

Serve it immediately with a chutney of your choice. Our favorite happens to be peanut chutney.

  2. What an amazing find Harini. I am a big fan of instant idli and dosa (because I’m too forgetful to soak and too lazy to grind) and these dosa look just perfect. I’m definitely going to try these some time soon.
