Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Semolina (Rava)
- 0.5 cup Rice flour
- 0.5 cup Chickpea flour (Besan)
- 0.25 cup Whey protein powder (unflavored)
- 1 Finely chopped onion
- 2 Finely chopped green chilies
- 0.25 cup Chopped coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Curd (yogurt)
- 2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine semolina (rava), rice flour, chickpea flour, and unflavored whey protein powder.
Add salt, cumin seeds, and black pepper powder to the dry ingredients and mix well.
Add curd (yogurt) and water to the dry mixture, stirring continuously to form a thin, batter-like consistency.
Whisk the batter well ensuring there are no lumps and it has a smooth texture.
Incorporate the chopped onions, green chilies, and chopped coriander leaves into the batter and mix.
Cover the batter and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend well.
Heat a non-stick pan or dosa tawa over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a little oil using a brush or a paper towel.
Stir the batter well before using as semolina tends to settle at the bottom. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the heated pan starting from the edges and moving inwards, filling any gaps.
Drizzle a few drops of oil around the edges of the dosa and cook until it becomes golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the dosa with a spatula and cook the other side for a minute until it is cooked through.
Remove the dosa from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the high protein rava dosa hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
