Thuvaram Paruppu Dosai/Toor Dhal Dosa

This is a simple,delicious,filling and easy to make dosa preparation without fermentation.This is my grandma's recipe and she used to make this for breakfast or dinner.I make this dosa whenever I run out of idly,dosa batter and serves with coconut chutney.Now on to the delicious recipe...


Ingredients

IngredientQuantity
Boiled rice /Idly rice2cups
Toor dhal1/2cup
Red chilly10nos.
Onion(chopped) 1no.
Saltto taste
Curry leaves(chopped)1sprig
Coriander leaves(chopped)2tbs
Asafoetida1/8tsp
Oilas needed

Method

                         Soak the rice and dhal together for 2 hours,grind it with red chillies and salt to a little coarse paste.
Now add in the chopped onion,curry leaves,coriander leaves and asafoetida to the batter.Adjust the consistency of the batter with water(should be thin as rava dosa batter).
Heat the dosa griddle,once it is ready pour the batter in a circular motion(from outside to inside).Drizzle a tsp of oil.
Flip it to other side and let it cook till it gets crispy.
Serve it hot with coconut chutney.

Enjoy...........

  • To make it more healthier brown rice can be used instead of boiled rice.
  • While pouring the batter,the griddle should be hot then reduce the flame to medium to cook.

  3. Nalini you have written 'boiled rice'- it must be 'raw' par-boiled rice, is it not? Did you have any problems in grinding it in the mixie? Thanks!

  5. /'raw' par-boiled rice, is it not?/what is raw par-boiled rice?? :) its either par-boiled or boiled! Raw rice is raw..like Sona masoori,Basmati,ponni raw rice. Idli rice is also boiled rice, and par-boiled rice will work fine for idli! I think Nalini has written correctly! This is just my understanding..hope this helps you Shri! :)

    Nice dosa Nalini! adai mathiriye irukku!

  14. Hi Shri
    Boiled rice means pulungal arisi in tamil,if it is not available Idly rice can be used,I used the Idly rice and soaked it.Its not the cooked rice and didn't feel any difficulty in grinding in the mixie.

  23. How long can you keep the batter? Also any way to get it little more sour? For that slightly more fermented taste?
