Preparation

1.Soak all the above ingredients for 3-4 hours except poha. You can soak poha 15 minutes before grinding.

2.Grind separately tomato, green chili, cumin/jeera seeds and pearl onions to a fine paste. Keep it aside.

After soaking, grind the dosa batter along with poha to a smooth paste. Then add tomato flavor to the ground batter and grind both together for a few minutes. Add salt as needed.

Let the batter ferment for 5 hours.

Note –If you like pepper flavor, you can substitute green chilies with whole black pepper.

 

Method

Heat a non-stick tawa or an iron tawa, add a drop of oil and rub with half an onion.(this is done to prevent the dosa from sticking to the tawa)

Pour 1 ladle of batter in the center and spread it in a circular motion.

Drizzle a tsp of oil around the dosa. Once the dosa is cooked to some extent, flip it over to the other side.

Cook the other side also well and serve hot with any chutney or just idli podi.
