This was another spot invention or rather innovation in my kitchen this night for dinner . I had my Aval Dosa or Poha Dosa batter ready to be used for dinner , but suddenly when I saw piping hot sambar and chutney ready , I felt there should be some spice element to the dosa too which will enhance the dinner experience. It was quite late to prepare aloo masala to make masala dosas, so I made a spicy puree of tomatoes and added it to the batter with a garnish of finely chopped coriander and a tangy and spicy tomato dosa was ready .
Soaking Time - 3 hrs
Grinding Time - 20-25 mins
Fermentation Time - 7-8 hrs
Cooking Time - 2 mins per dosa
Makes 10-12 dosas.
Ingredients
1 cup or 150 gms raw rice (I used sona masuri)
1 cup thick rice flakes / jada poha/ getti aval / avlakki
1/2 cup udad dhall
1 tsp methi seeds
For the puree
2 medium sized tomatoes
2 green chillies
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
Few curry leaves
Chopped coriander
Salt to taste
Method
Note
These dosas won't be very crisp because of addition of poha or aval . They remain soft and spongy for 2-3 hrs which makes it ideal for packing into lunch boxes too for school kids.
