Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.25 cup Rice flour
- 0.25 cup Yogurt (unsalted, low-sodium)
- 1.25 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 small Green chili (finely chopped, optional)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rice flour, and yogurt. Mix well.
Gradually add water to the mixture while stirring to avoid lumps. Ensure the batter has a thin, pourable consistency, similar to pancake batter.
Add the grated ginger, cumin seeds, chopped green chili (optional), and cilantro to the batter. Mix thoroughly.
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a few drops of oil using a brush or paper towel.
Pour a ladleful of batter onto the center of the skillet and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
Cook the dosa over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns golden brown.
Flip the dosa carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Remove the dosa from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Serve hot with low-sodium chutney or unsalted vegetable stew.
