Chola Dosai/Sorghum Dosa/Jowar Dosa


Today I am sharing a village style dosa in Cooking Carnival in Mega Blogging Marathon edition.
As I already mentioned in my first post,this week I will be sharing the fermented dosa varieties.
Coming to the recipe,its a popular village style dosa.My grand mother used to make this dosa with the whole sorghum/ cholam.Due to unavailability of the grain I used it with the sorghum flour.This dosa is so soft and it gets a very nice golden color.Also the batter needs to be fermented properly to relish the taste of the dosa.Spicy kara Chutney is the perfect combo for this Chutney.Off to the recipe....
