Tomato Dosa_1

Breakfast is the most important part of your daily meal…. it literally means Break – The – Fast….. It is most important to have a sumptuous breakfast to stay fit and healthy and also to avoid unnecessary health issues.

When we talk about instant breakfast, instant dosa is one think that crosses our mind. If you are a stay at home mom, working mom, working woman, college going girl, no matter who you are, instant dosas will get you through a busy morning.

Dosas are a high protein breakfast option that has all the requisite nutrients to start your day, however making the batter ahead of time is not always possible given our busy schedules these days.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup raw rice
  • ¼ cup urad dal
  • 3 tomatoes
  • ¼ teaspoon fenugreek seeds (methi seeds)
  • salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon cooking soda
  • water as required
  • oil or ghee to cook dosa

Instructions
 

  • Rinse raw rice and urad dal separately. Soak them separately in enough water for minimum 3 to 4 hours. You could also soak them over night.
  • Next morning, grind both rice and urad dal together with little water until it forms a smooth batter. Add roughly chopped tomatoes and grind for few more minutes till all tomatoes are ground well.
  • Pour batter into a bowl. Add salt to taste and mix well. Add cooking soda and mix again. Leave it for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a non stick tawa. Pour a ladle full of batter and spread it into round dosa shape. You can spread it thin or leave it a little thick.
  • Dribble a few drops of oil or ghee on the sides. Cover it with a pan and let it cook on low flame.
  • Once the sides of the dosa starts to brown and release from the pan, gently remove dosa from tawa. Repeat the same with rest of the batter.
  • Serve dosa immediately hot with coconut chutney, spicy onion-tomato chutney or even chutney powder.

Notes

You can use red rice in place of raw rice for this dosa. 
I haven't used brown rice for dosa batter, but i'm guessing brown rice will work too. Need to check the texture and taste of the dosa with brown rice.

My food philosophy is simple, fresh and full of flavors! I love ‘spicy’ food. In fact so much so that I can skip dessert for extra spicy savory food!
