Tomato Dosa/Thakkali dosai


Today's recipe is an instant version of dosa which doesn't need any fermentation which is a good option for breakfast or dinner.
This dosa can be made with both raw rice and idly rice but today I used the raw rice and flattened rice(poha).
Addition of tomatoes give a nice color and tanginess and the poha gives a soft crisp texture to the dosa.This dosa can be eaten as such but coconut chutney is the perfect combo and gives an added taste.Now off to the recipe..............

Ingredients

Raw rice/sona masoori rice/Paccharisi11/2cups
Rice flakes/flatten rice/poha/aval(thin variety)1/3cup

Red chilly4-5nos.
Cumin seeds/jeeragam 1tsp
Asaoetidaa generous pinch
Coriander leaves(chopped)2tbs
Onion(finely chopped)1/2no.
Saltto taste
Oilas needed



Method 

  • Soak the rice for 2 hours and drain the water and keep aside.Soak the aval in the water for 2 minutes and squeeze the excess water,chop the tomatoes roughly.
  • In a blender jar put the rice,aval,chopped tomatoes,cumin seeds,red chilly and salt.Grind it to a fine paste with little water as needed. 
  • Add the coriander leaves and finely chopped onion,asafoetida to it and adjust the consistency by adding water little by little (should not be too thick or too thin).

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

Paasiparuppu Dosa/Yellow Moong Dhal Dosa

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
