Wheat Flour Dosai is very simple, people may think.It is true, if certain tips are followed carefully.It is the best alternative for chappathis and also one of the easiest tiffin items, made with the common ingredients.
Despite my years of cooking experience, only for the past three years, I am very happy with my Gothumai Mavuu ( Wheat Flour) Dosais, following a few tips, born out of experience.
Ingredients:
Wheat Flour 1 cup
Rice Flour 1/3 cup.
Salt
Pepper Powder / Chilly Powder
Method :
1. Mix well the flour, salt and the Pepper powder. Then add water little by little and mix
well with the hand without any lumps. This is very important.The batter must be watery
and also of the Dosai consistency.If the batter is thick, thin Dosais cannot be prepared.
Let it rest at least for 30 mins.This is the second tip.
2.Before preparing the dosais, once again check the batter with the hand and break even
if there are small lumps.This is the third tip.
3. Heat the Tawa.Do not smear it with too much of oil.This is the fourth tip.Too much of
oil applied on the Tawa will make the batter ' dance ' to its wish.Smear the Tawa using
greased cloth, if necessary.
4. Pour the batter, make it into a thin round Dosai. Add oil or ghee as per taste. Once the
batter is cooked on one side, turn it to the other side. Remove when the Dosai becomes
golden brown.
Note :
Sliced onions, chillies and curry leaves were added in olden days.But we cannot make thin dosais.Those who are particular of the Onion flavour can add them raw or sauted.Mustard can be added.The Dosais may slightly be thick but soft.
Heavy iron Dosai Kal,( Tawa ) made out of Cast Iron is best for making, any type of Dosai, thick Kal Dosai, set Dosai or Roast.Initially it may take time for getting heated. Once heated, Dosai can be prepared quickly with patience and care.
Greasing the Tawa with only minimum oil is to be followed. Afterwards on the Dosai, adding as much oil or ghee is the secret of the Roast.
