Introduction
Before using the DosaMaker please carefully read all instructions.
The DosaMaker includes a number of unique features that users must
be familiar with before operating this appliance.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT US AT
[email protected] BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE.

12 13
PREPARING TO USE THE DOSAMAKER FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using the DosaMaker for the rst time you will need to familiarize
yourself with its features and the way it operates.Carefully follow all instructions.
For more information and demonstration videos on using the DosaMaker,
visit www.DosaMaker.com.
Ensure the area surrounding the DosaMaker is clear of any objects.
Pay particular attention to the area around the handles.
Remove any stickers on the cooking surfaces and use a clean cloth with warm
water to wipe all surfaces to remove any dust or particles.
During use, the DosaMaker will generate steam which will condense into
water around the rear of the appliance.To prevent water from pooling, place
a paper towel on the counter top at the rear of the appliance during use.
USING THE OIL SPREADING APPLICATOR
Before making a dosa, you need to apply a thin coating of cooking oil to the
top and bottom cooking plates. This will ensure that the cooked dosa can be
easily removed from the DosaMaker.
Always use the Oil Applicator to apply or remove oil from the cooking plates
and follow all instructions carefully. NEVER APPLY OR REMOVE OIL WITHOUT
THE OIL APPLICATOR, OR TOUCH ANY HOT SURFACES.

To use the Oil Applicator:
1. Fold a paper towel sheet (or thick napkin) in half until it will t inside the
Oil Applicator. Allow approximately ¼ inch of the folded paper towel to
extend from the bottom of the Oil Applicator.
2. Hold the Oil Applicator from the top and squeeze the applicator to
secure the paper towel. Press the bottom of the Oil Applicator with the
extended paper towel against a clean at surface to create a at edge in
the paper towel.
3. Pour 2 tablespoons of cooking oil into a small bowl. We recommend
using cooking oil with a higher smoking point, such as canola oil,
vegetable oil, grape seed oil, coconut oil, or ghee (claried butter).
4. Dip the paper towel edge of the Oil Applicator into the bowl to absorb
the desired amount of cooking oil.
5. Gently wipe the top and bottom cooking plates to apply the cooking oil.

HOW TO CLOSE THE DOSAMAKER TO EVENLY SPREAD BATTER
One of the main features of the DosaMaker is the ability to evenly spread
batter into a thin, circular shape. To create a uniformly spread circular dosa,
the DosaMaker must be closed using the following procedure:
We highly recommend learning this closing procedure before turning the
DosaMaker ON or pouring batter. You must familiarize yourself with this
procedure and the weight of the top cover (lid) before attempting to
spread batter and make a dosa.
1. Place the DosaMaker in the Elevated Cooking Position. In the open
position (Fig. A), grasp the handles and gently pull the top cover (lid)
towards the front of the appliance and slowly lower the top cover (lid)
towards the bottom cooking plate as shown in Fig. B. As you approach
the bottom cooking plate, the Guide Post will contact the Guide Post
Rest. The top cover (lid) will be held in the Elevated Cooking Position as
shown in Fig. C.
FIG. A – Open position
FIG. B – Moving top cover (lid)
towards bottom cooking plate
2. As shown in Fig. D slowly slide the top cover (lid) towards the rear of the
appliance while MAINTAINING THE WEIGHT OF THE TOP COVER (LID) IN
YOUR HANDS – DO NOT ALLOW THE TOP COVER (LID) TO DROP. In this
position, the Guide Post will be above the Guide Post Slot as shown in Fig. E.
FIG. C – Elevated cooking position
FIG. D – Sliding the lid towards the rear -
DO NOT ALLOW THE LID TO DROP
FIG. E – Guide Post above Guide Post Slot

16 17
3. Slowly lower the top cover (lid) towards the bottom cooking plate WHILE
KEEPING THE TOP COVER (LID) LEVEL, so the Guide Post enters the
Guide Post Slot as shown in Fig. F. This will close the DosaMaker (Fig. G)
and spread the batter on the bottom cooking plate. Allowing one hand
to lower faster than the other, or the front of the top cover (lid) to lower
before the rear, may result in an unevenly spread dosa.
When closing the DosaMaker never allow the top cover (lid) to drop or
slam onto the bottom cooking plate, as this can damage the nonstick
coating on the cooking plates and possibly cause injury.
FIG. G – DosaMaker closed
FIG. F – Closing the DosaMaker
HOW TO SET THE TEMPERATURE OF THE DOSAMAKER
The DosaMaker uses an automatic temperature control system to manage
the temperature of the cooking surfaces. The DosaMaker has 3 temperature
settings – 1 (Low), 2 (Medium), and 3 (High).
Due to the variety of ingredients that can be used in dosa batters, you must
determine the temperature setting that works best for the batter you are using.
When using the DosaMaker for the rst time, we recommend using the
lowest temperature setting and increasing the temperature setting as desired.
To select the temperature setting, locate the temperature switch at the rear of
the appliance and slide it to the desired setting as shown in Fig. H.
When the DosaMaker is pre-heating the Power Light will turn ON and
illuminate RED. When the DosaMaker has reached the selected temperature
setting and is ready to make dosas, the Cooking Light will ash GREEN.
We do not recommend changing the temperature setting switch while
the RED Power Light is ON.

Making a Dosa
For more information and demonstration videos on using the DosaMaker,
please visit www.DosaMaker.com.
To make a dosa you will need:
• Dosa batter
• Cooking oil poured into a small bowl. We recommend using a
cooking oil with a higher smoking point, such as canola oil, vegetable
oil, grape seed oil, coconut oil, or ghee (claried butter).
• Paper towels
1. Place the DosaMaker on a level countertop, tabletop, or surface.
2. Select the desired temperature setting (1, 2, or 3).
3. Place the top cover (lid) in the Elevated Cooking Position by following the
procedure described on page 14.
4. Pre-heat the DosaMaker by plugging the power cord into the electrical
outlet. The Power Light will turn ON and illuminate RED. The DosaMaker
is now ON and the plates are being heated.
5. Once pre-heated, the Power Light will turn OFF and the Cooking Light
will ash GREEN. You are now ready to make dosas.
6. Carefully grasp the handles and open the top cover (lid).
7. Use the Oil Applicator to apply a thin coating of cooking oil to the top
and bottom cooking plates, as decribed on page 12.
Note: If you prefer not to use oil when making your dosa you should
still apply a thin coating of oil to prepare the cooking plates. You can
then wipe the cooking plates again using a clean paper towel in the Oil
Applicator to remove the oil that was applied before making your dosa.
For more information about making a dosa with no or less oil, see the
“Cooking Tips” section.
8. Using the measuring cup, pour the desired amount of batter onto the
center of the bottom cooking plate. For information about how much
batter to use, see the “Cooking Tips” section.
To make a thinner dosa, use batter with a thinner consistency. To make a
thicker dosa, use batter with a thicker consistency.
9. Close the top cover (lid) by following the closing procedure described on
page 14. Set the timer to the desired cooking time. Do not leave the
DosaMaker unattended during use. For information about cooking
time, see the “Cooking Tips” section.
10. Once the desired cooking time has been reached, grasp the handles and
open the top cover (lid). Using the plastic spatula provided, remove the
dosa and place it on a plate. CAUTION – The dosa will be hot. Always
use the provided plastic spatula. Never use metal utensils, tongs, or
tools as these can damage the non-stick coating on the cooking plates.
Note: In some cases the cooked dosa will be attached to the top cooking
plate when opening the top cover (lid). If this occurs, use the plastic
spatula to gently slide the dosa off of the top cooking plate and onto the
bottom cooking plate before removing the dosa from the DosaMaker.
11. Using the Oil Applicator, wipe the top and bottom cooking plates to
remove any cooked dosa that may have adhered to the cooking plates
before making the next dosa. Repeat steps 7 to 11 to make additional dosas.
12. After using the DosaMaker, disconnect the power cord plug from the
electrical outlet.
