Instant Rava Dosa recipe: A Culinary Delight

Instant rava dosa is suitable for any occasion. With only 30 minutes and a few simple ingredients, you can have this delicious dosa for lunch, dinner, or the morning.

Rava dosa is a simple and popular South Indian dosa variation. Crepes are made from semolina (rava), rice flour, all-purpose flour, and seasonings that are crispily netted, and thin. Unlike the classic Dosa Recipe, these are exceedingly simple to make and involve no grinding or fermentation.

Sooji, rice flour, and water or buttermilk are combined to make a thin batter. The batter is seasoned with onions, green chilies, and additional herbs and spices. The batter is then put over a hot tawa (griddle) to achieve the desired effect on the dosa.

The dosa is cooked until golden crisp before being served hot. The batter must be thin to achieve excellent crisp instant rava dosa with a netted structure. So, keep in mind that the batter should be thin and easy to flow.
