Rava Dosa Recipe – Instant Onion Rava Dosa | Suji Dosa

Rava Dosa – a crispy, crunchy, amazing-tasting dosa made with semolina, rice flour and all-purpose flour and spiced up with onions, ginger, green chilies, curry leaves and coriander leaves. They take no time at all to make and pair well with any chutney. It’s my favorite quick and easy breakfast dish.

Rava is also called semolina, suji or cream of wheat. Homemade crispy, spicy and porous dosas relished with hot sambar or ginger/coconut chutney is yum!

Rava Dosa Recipe:

Rava Dosa is an instant, crispy crepe with a lacy, net-like appearance. The batter can be put together in minutes and it’s made from ingredients that one has on hand. This easy breakfast recipe requires no fermentation.

For preparing instant crispy dosa, firstly in a mixing bowl, take 1 cup rice flour, 1 cup suji (semolina) and ½ cup maida (all purpose flour).

Then add a teaspoon of jeera (cumin seeds), salt to taste, finely chopped onion (optional), chopped green chillies, chopped coriander leaves, chopped ginger, chopped curry leaves and 1 tbsp of curd. Mix all the ingredients well.

Now keep pouring water into the batter till you get a lump-free pouring consistency batter.

Keep the rava dosa batter aside for 20 minutes.
You will notice that the batter has thickened again as the flours and semolina absorbed the water. So again add water to dilute the batter.

Now heat a flat, not stick pan. Using a round ladle mix the batter and pour a ladleful of batter on the pan.

Start by pouring the batter from the edge of the pan and moving towards the centre, filling any gaps with the batter. Do not attempt to spread the batter.

Let the dosa cook for 1-2 minutes on medium-high heat. Then drizzle oil around the edges and on top of the dosa.

Once the edges of the dosa start to peel off from the pan and the underside of the dosa turns a crispy brown, flip the dosa over with a flat spatula.

Let the dosa cook for 30 seconds and then fold and remove it onto a plate.

You have to mix the batter each time you make the dosa. In case the batter becomes thick, dilute it with water.

Serve hot and crispy Rava Dosa with ginger chutney or coconut chutney.
