Instant Rava Dosai




 
        Rava dosai is mostly prepared when the batter is less and you want to make dinner .Soaking rava is one method,usually done.Try roasting the rava and adding it .The dosai taste great and you dont feel the rava is added.You need more oil for a crispy and tasty one.If you are health conscious you can add little oil in the corners for taking the dosai easily.It is bit time consuming but tastes great as Restaurant dosa.

    1. Hi Meena
      The rava dosa comes crispy and thin , the way we pour the batter.It is quite tricky,if u do it once or twice you will definitely get it .Hope this helps.
