Rava dosae - Instant Batter

Rava Dosae is one the simplest dosas that can be whipped up in no time and instantly.
It is very tasty as well.
I learnt this from a friend of mine and was amazed at its simplicity.
So here goes the recipe for you...

Ingredients
------------
1) Rice Flour - 1 cup
2) Maida Flour - 1 cup
3) Rava (Chiroti/Peni Rava - Very small rava) - 1 cup
4) Green chillies
5) Jeera
6) Corainder
7) Pepper

Method
---------
Mix all the three flours in a bowl. Add in finely chopped green chillies, chopped coriander, jeera and pepper kernels (partially broken) to the flour mixture. Add in required amount of salt.
To this, add water and mix till a thin batter is achieved.
The batter should be slightly watery and runny.

Once the batter is ready, leave it for 10-15mins.

Now heat a non stick tawa, and add a little oil. Now pour the dosae mixture on the tawa, as thin as possible.
Start from the outer ring and move in. There is no need to rotate/spread the batter on the tawa like a normal dosae. Just pour in the batter and leave it.
The thinner you make it, the crispier it will be.
Turn and fry the dosae on both sides and serve with chutney.
Tasty, crispy rava doase is ready to be relished. It will be as good as or even better than in hotels.

Tips :: A small cup of curd also can be added to the batter.
          If finely chopped onions are added to the batter, then you will end up with Rava Onion Dosae.
          If you add in some aloo curry (like in masala dosae) inside the rava dosae, you will get a Rava Onion Masala Dosae.
Once the base recipe is known, many such variations can be tried (like in hotels).
