Tamil Nadu dosa variant — wheat dosa made with whole wheat dosa.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Prepare wheat dosa batter: Mix 2 cups whole wheat flour with 1 tsp cumin seeds, half tsp red chilli powder, 1 tbsp finely chopped onion, 1 tbsp fresh coriander and salt.
  2. Add water and yogurt: Add half cup yogurt and water to make a thin smooth batter — slightly thinner than regular dosa batter. Rest 15 minutes.
  3. Heat tawa: Heat a flat tawa on medium-high heat.
  4. Oil the tawa: Drizzle half tsp oil and spread evenly.
  5. Pour batter: Pour a ladleful of batter and spread quickly in a circular motion into a thin round.
  6. Add oil: Drizzle half tsp oil around the edges.
  7. Cook first side: Cook on medium heat 2-3 minutes until small bubbles appear and the base is golden.
  8. Flip: Turn the dosa using a flat spatula.
  9. Cook second side: Cook 1-2 minutes until second side is also golden.
  10. Serve: Wheat dosa is a healthier alternative to rice dosa with a nutty flavour. Serve with coconut chutney and sambar.
