2 Add water to the bowl in double height of the contents.

 

3 Soak for 5 hours.

 

4 After 5 hours , the contents in the bowl needs to wash & rinse 3-4 times.

 

5 Add the rice and other contents to a grinder or mixer.

 

6 Add water to the level of rice. (If required add extra water. Batter cannot be too watery. So just add to the level of rice.) **If you need very crispy dosa ,then leave some grain of rice when you make the batter. Means do not make too smooth batter. If you like soft dosa make a smooth batter.

 

7 Add the batter to a bowl and allow to ferment overnight ( minimum 10 hours )

​

In the morning add 1/2 tsp of salt (as required)to the batter and mix well.
