Paper Dosa Recipe (Crispy Paper Dosa)

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup raw rice (chawal)
• 3/4 cup urad dal (safed urad dal)
• 1/2 cup rice flour (chawal ka atta)
• salt (namak) to taste
• ghee for greasing and cooking

Steps

1. To make crispy paper dosa, wash and soak the raw rice and urad dal separately in enough water in deep bowls for 3 to 4 hours and drain well.
2. Combine the rice, urad dal and rice flour and blend in a mixer to a smooth paste using approx. 1 ½ cups of water to get a batter of thick pouring consistency.
3. Add the salt and mix well.
4. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and grease it lightly using ghee.
5. Sprinkle a little water on the tava (griddle) and wipe it off gently using a muslin cloth.
6. Pour a ladleful of the batter on it and spread it in a circular motion to make a 225 mm. (9”) diameter thin circle.
7. Smear a little ghee over it and along the edges and cook on a medium flame till the dosa turns golden brown in colour and crisp.
8. Fold over to make a semi-circle or a roll.
9. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 9 more crispy paper dosas.
10. Serve the crispy paper dosa immediately with sambhar and coconut chutney.
