INGREDIENTS

Roasted rice flour   - 1 cup ( as it is roasted, 1 cup is enough to make more dosa. Roasted rice powder can be bought from supermarkets. Roasted rice flour and steam cake flour ( puttu podi) are same. 

Curd / Yogurt  - 4 tbsp ( add according to the sourness  of curd)

Onion                   - 1, small, very finely chopped

Tomato                 - half a piece, chopped

Coriander leaves  - chopped, few

Salt                                            

Oil     - 3 tbsp

PREPARATION

• Grind together roasted rice flour (puttu podi) and curd with more than half a cup of water. Grind until a smooth paste. As it is roasted, you might need more water for grinding. So use accordingly.
• When done transfer it to bowl. The consistency must be like rice dosa batter( ari dosa batter). Should not be too thick nor too thin. Must be of a  flowing consistency. Add salt and now add the chopped onion, tomato, coriander leaves and combine very well.
• Add oil to the flour mixture. So that you do not need to grease the frying pan before making each dosa. 
• Now heat a pan and grease it well with oil( only for the first dosa). When it is hot (do not prepare in high flame or very low flame, always prepare dosa in a medium flame) take a ladle full of batter from the outer side to the inner portion. If the gaps are too big, fill them with batter.
• Drizzle some oil/butter on the top ( optional only) after 30 seconds. Close it with a lid. Flip after few seconds and again cook for few seconds. Same like Rawa dosa only.
• When done, transfer it to a plate and serve immediately.
• It is very delicious when served immediately.
