BM #134 Week 3 Day 3 -
We love Rava dosa very much and so when I had to think about a dosa with the letter 'O', I had a strong feeling that I could come up with some kind of rava dosa with Oats and this recipe was born.
I basically substituted Rice Flour and Maida with Oats Flour and millet flour and these dosas were a delight to have. They were not super crispy but crisp enough for my taste. :)
Here are some of the other variations of Rava Dosa I have previously made -
Ingredients -
Rolled Oats 1/2 cup
Foxtail millet 1/4 cup
Sooji / Bombay Rava 1/4 cup
Yogurt 1/2 cup
Water 3 cups (or more as needed)
Green chilies finely chopped 1 tsp
Ginger, grated 1 tsp
Crushed pepper 1/4 tsp
Coriander leaves finely chopped 2 Tbsp
Onions finely chopped 1/2 cup
Salt as needed
Oil to shallow fry the Dosas
Method Of Preparation -
Dry roast rolled oats and foxtail millet for about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and grind into a fine powder upon cooling.
In a mixing bowl, add the above flour, rava and salt and whisk well.
Add crushed peppercorns and yogurt. Whisk adding as much water as needed to make a stiff batter. Cover and rest the batter for a few minutes.
After about 10-15 minutes, add the grated ginger, finely chopped green chilies, and coriander leaves into the batter. Add about 1.5-2 cups of water to make the batter runny.
Just as for the regular Rava Dosa, heat the griddle, pour the batter from the outer circle towards the center and make sure not to spread the batter using a ladle. Spray oil as needed and allow the dosa to cook on the underside.
When the dosa is easy to peel off , flip the dosa to cook on the other side as well.
Remove and continue with the rest of the batter.
