Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Coconut flour
- 0.25 cups Arrowroot powder
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Water
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.25 cups Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 optional Green chili, finely chopped
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine coconut flour and arrowroot powder and mix thoroughly.
Crack the eggs into the dry mixture and whisk until smooth and well combined.
Slowly add water to the egg and flour mixture, stirring continuously to form a smooth batter without lumps.
Add the finely chopped onion, cumin seeds, salt, and optional green chili into the batter, mixing well to distribute evenly.
Heat 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, pour a ladleful of batter into the center of the pan and spread it out gently in a circular motion to form a thin layer.
Let the dosa cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to lift and turn golden brown. Flip carefully and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes.
Remove the dosa from the pan and place it on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Garnish the dosas with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your nutritious Paleo Onion Dosa with your favorite chutney or side dish.
