Making of Rava Dosa
After 20 minutes, we can notice the top layer is watery and the bottom layer is thick. Mix and check the consistency of the batter. The batter should be like a thin butter milk. Adjust the consistency of the batter till the batter becomes absolutely thin in consistency.
Heat a thawa (Dosa Pan) and sprinkle little water and it the water sizzles, then the tawa is hot. Now, Pour a ladle of batter in the tawa. Start from the outer circle of the dosa and finish at the inner circle. You can see the dosa will have lots of small holes as the batter is so thin. Do not spread the dosa batter.
Add a teaspoon of ghee / oil around the dosa and keep the flame in medium and allow the dosa to cook till it is crispy and the bottom part becomes nicely golden brown. If the flame is low/medium, then the dosa will be nicely cooked and the edges started coming out
Since the rava dosa is thin, we don’t need to flip it to cook the other side. Once the dosa is cooked completely, remove it slowly using the spatula
The Crispy and yummy rawa dosa is ready to serve with any type of chutneys‘
