Rava dosa is a popular South Indian Dosa variety made with semolina. Almost all restaurants in SouthIndia have this recipe on their menu. This is a delectabaly crispy dosa that can be prepared instantly without the usual fermentation process. There are many variations in Rawa Dosa with respect to the ingredients and measurements used and I am giving here the one that I normally use. Serve the crispy and tasty Rava dosa with your favourite dippings. I personally prefer serving with Idli Podi. We can also serve with Idli sambar or any of your favourite chutneys.
Tips to make crispy Rava Dosa
- Ratio of the flours : Ratio of Rava : Rice Flour : Maida is 1:1:½. Maintain this ratio to get crispier dosa.
- Consistency of the batter : The consistency of the batter should be very thin. If the Dosa are coming out thick, then we need to adjust the batter with little more water. If the dosa is breaking, then the batter is very thin. In that case, add a tablespoon of Rava or Rice flour to make it thick .
- Temperature of the Pan : When you pour the batter, the pan should be hot. After pouring the batter, reduce the flame to allow the dosa to cook.
- Do not spread the batter : Pour the batter from slightly above the pan so that the batter spread nicely. Do not spread the bater. It's okay if you don't get the dosa in a perfect round shape.
- Use Fine Rava to make this Dosa.
