Ingredients
2
200 grams Red Lentils
50 grams Rice Flour
1 piece Onion
2 pieces Green chilies
2 tbsp Coriander leaves
1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
1 teaspoon Salt
Water as per taste
Oil as per taste
Tips
For added flavor, you can include grated carrots or chopped spinach to the batter.
Ensure the skillet is hot enough before pouring the batter to achieve a crisp texture.
Leftover dosas can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in a toaster or skillet.
Directions
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and soak them in water for about 2 hours.
After soaking, drain the water and transfer the lentils to a blender.
Add rice flour, chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, cumin seeds, and salt to the blender.
Blend the mixture into a smooth batter, adding water gradually to achieve the desired consistency. The batter should be pourable but not too thin.
Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa pan over medium heat.
Once hot, pour a ladleful of the batter onto the center of the skillet.
Using the back of the ladle, spread the batter in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
Drizzle a teaspoon of oil around the edges of the dosa and cook until the bottom turns golden brown and crisp.
Flip the dosa using a spatula and cook the other side for another minute or until golden brown.
Remove the dosa from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the red lentil instant dosas hot with your favorite chutney or sambar.
This recipe makes approximately 8 dosas.
