Preparation time: 5 hrs
Cooking time: 30 min
Serves: 3
Ingredients: (measuring cup used = 240ml)
- 1 cup raw rice (dosa rice or sona masuri)
- 2 big tomatoes
- 2 tbsp toor dal
- 1 tsp coriander seeds
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 - 2 red chilies
- 1cm length ginger
- 7 - 8 curry leaves finely chopped
- 1 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves
- Salt as per your taste
- 4 tsp refined oil or ghee.
Instructions for making tomato Dosa:
- To make tomato dosa first wash and soak rice and toor dal in water for at least 3-4 hours. I usually soak it overnight.
- Drain the water and grind it using a mixer grinder until smooth. Pour it into a container.
- Next chop the tomato. Take red chili, coriander seeds, cumin seeds and ginger as per the measurement.
- Transfer everything into a mixer grinder and grind until smooth. please note, it should neither be very smooth nor very coarse. Pour it into same container, which has rice batter.
- Add in salt, finely chopped curry leaves and coriander leaves. Mix well. The batter consistency should be much thinner than urad dal dosa batter. If you have time rest the batter for 30 minutes.
- Now take the cast iron pan (well seasoned) or non-stick pan and heat it. Smear oil if it is an iron pan. Pour a laddle ful of batter and spread it a bit. Close the lid.
- After few seconds open the lid, drizzle some oil, flip the dosa and cook on the other side. Enjoy yummy tomato dosa with plain coconut chutney or butter.
