Tomato Dosa is one of the easy, quick and tasty dosa. The batter is made with raw rice, tomato and other spices. The fermentation of batter is not needed, the tanginess of the tomato itself is enough for the batter. Its kind of instant dosa though there is soaking process of 2 -3 hours involved. It is so scrumptious that you could start preferring this than the normal dosa. Tomato Dosa is healthy as it has less calories than the normal dosa. The texture and flavor increases our appetite and make us to long for more dosas. I have given the recipe for this dosa using raw rice. But we can also use store bought rice flavour which makes this very instant.

We can use raw rice or parboiled rice. Only rice itself is enough but Poha/aval gives a nice soft texture to the dosa. Also adding spices like cumin, red chilli powder along with coriander leaves give much more wonderful flavor to the dosa. This Thakkali Dosa tastes much yummier with Coconut Chutney, Idli Podi or Sambar.

I have personally not tried with brown rice but it should work. Even millets will work instead of rice.

I have tried the same recipe from another website. But it ended up in a huge disaster to my dinner plans, kitchen and quality of dosa.
Thank you for this dosa! Came out very very well.. my normally-2 dosa-eating daughter ended up eating 3 and half dosa. That itself is a feedback for this recipe.
Thanks once again!
