SET DOSA

 

 

Set Dosa is nothing but Dosa with poha or flattenened rice,raw rice and urad dal carefully ground into a smooth mixture which when poured is  slightly thick than the usual dosas and served in stacks of two or three.The dosa is super spongy and fluffy and is highly filling yet light on the stomach.I have tried thiis dosa many a times here in Bangalore whenever i get a chance to eat out.It is served with Vegetable Sagu and Coconut Chutney.You can prepare this dosa with the normal dosa batter too,but you won’t get the fluffy or spongy texture which is so important for the set dosa.So with a little variartion in the batter,try out this exotic dosa variety for a sunday brunch as a weekday breakfast.

Recipe Notes

Notes

  • You might add baking soda for more sponginess.
  • Addition of a half teaspoon of sugar makes the dosa golden brown.
  • You can also serve this with sambhar or any chutney of your choice.
  • Allow the batter to ferment nicely so that when you poer them instantly bubbles are formed on top.
