Ingredients

  • Wheat grains- 1 cup
  • Grated coconut- 3/4 cup
  • Green chilly- 2
  • Ginger- 1" piece
  • Salt- 1 teaspoon

Instructions

Preparation

  • Wash and soak wheat grains for 8 to 10 hrs.

Method

  • Grind the soaked wheat grains along with grated coconut, green chilly, salt and ginger in mixer/grinder. Add water in steps so that the batter gets consistency of normal dosa. No fermentation of the batter is required, straight away you can start with dosa preparation.
  • Heat a dosa skillet and spread a tea spoon of oil on it. Rub using coconut coir. Pour a ladleful wheat batter at the center. With the back of ladle spread the batter as thin as possible in circular motion from center to widening towards the edge.
  • Drizzle some oil on the wheat dosa and let it cook for 2 mins with closed lid in a medium flame.
  • Once done, using a flat spatula remove dosa from the skillet. Repeat the process with rest of the batter. Serve wheat dosa with chutney/ sambar of your choice.

Note:

  • If you desire you can add chopped curry leaves and coriander leaves to the batter.
  • Green chilly and ginger are optional, without them the plain wheat dosa too tastes good.
  • When hot the dosa will be very crispy and tasty. So serve from skillet directly to plate.
