Ingredients

3 cups par boiled rice plus 1 tbsp fenugreek seed

1 cup urad dhal

pinch of salt

Directions

Wash and Soak rice and the dhal separately for minimum 4 hours .

In a food processor or grinder , grind the dhal first with abit of water until it increases in volume and becomes smooth .

Pour in a bowl and set aside .

Now grind the rice with adding abit of water until it becomes smooth .

Add the dhal in and the salt .

Once it blends well , remove the batter and keep in a bigger bowl and leave it overnite to ferment.

Next day , add water to get a batter of pouring consistency . With practice, you' ll know how much water to add .

Heat a non stick flat pan. Grease it .

Put a ladleful of batter in the centre of the pan.

Immediately spread the batter in a circular motion starting from the centre, to get a crepe.

Must do it fast in spreading the batter,

otherwise it will start cooking instantly and u end up with a thick crepes .

The idea is to get thin crepes.

Drizzle margarine or olive oil around the edges.

Wait till the dosai becomes golden and becomes a little crisp around the edges.

Carefully loosen the dosai from the pan and flip.

Cook on the other side too .

Serve hot basically with any kind of gravy / curry , honey , jam ..... depends on your mood
