Instant Dosa From Leftover Rice and Sooji

Step 1

Take 1 cup of sooji in a blender jar. Grind it into a powder.

Step 2

Now add 1 ½ cup of leftover rice in a grinder jar. I have used sona masoori rice. You can use any variety of cooked rice. Grind it again for 30 seconds.

Step 3

Then add 1 cup curd/plain yogurt. Again grind it for few seconds.

Step 4

Now add 3/4 cup water and grind to a smooth batter.

Step 5

Remove the batter to a bowl. Cover the bowl and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Now add salt and baking soda to the batter. Do not add too much baking soda as then there will be a soapy aroma in the dosa.

Step 7

Mix very well.

Step 8

Heat a pan and keep the flame to a low.

Step 9

Take a ladle of the batter and gently spread the batter. While spreading this instant dosa batter, do make sure that the tawa is not too hot. If the pan is hot, the batter becomes difficult to spread. So the tawa should be warm or less hot. If the pan becomes hot, sprinkle some water.

Step 10

Drizzle some ghee, oil, or butter on the sides and the center. Ghee helps the dosa to be crisp. Continue to cook till the base becomes nicely crisp.

Step 11

Remove it with spatula and then serve with green mango chutney or any chutney of your choice and dosa podi.
