3 cups idly rice
Salt to taste
Directions:
Soak the rice and dal separately for 3 hours. Grind dal first into a smooth consistency adding
enough water. Grind rice into a smooth batter by adding just enough water to get it going.
Combine the two, add salt, and let it ferment in a large enough bowl lightly covered, for about 6-
8 hours in a warm place.
Add enough water to the fermented batter until you have a smooth, pouring consistency. Make
sure the batter is not too watery, it should be thick, and fall off the spoon easily.
Heat a tawa or griddle and grease with oil lightly. Pour about 1/2 cup batter to the centre of the
tawa. Using the back of your ladle gently spread the batter with a circular motion from the
centre towards the sides of the tawa. Drizzle about 1 tsp of oil around the edges of the dosa and
add a few sprinkles on the top as well. The edge of the dosa will start to come off the pan in
about 1 minute or so. Use a spatula to gently lift the dosa and flip. Cook the other side for
another 40 seconds or so and remove from pan. Serve with Coconut chutney and/or Sambar.
