Today we are going to see how to make neer dosa
It is a very soft and spongy dosa
very easy to make
It just needs raw rice, grated coconut and salt
No fermentation required
Let's see how to make this soft dosa
Add 2 cups of raw rice in a bowl
wash it well
Add enough water for saoking
I have soaked the rice just for 1 1/2 hours as raw rice soaks very fast
You can soak from 2 to 4 hours
The rice has soaked well
Drain all the water from the rice
Let us grind the rice in 2 batches in a mixie jar
Add half of the rice that we soaked
For 1 cup rice add 1/4 cup grated coconut
Grind the rice and coconut without adding any water
After that add water little by little and grind into a smooth batter
If the batter is not smooth dosa will not be soft
If we add all water at first, the rice will not grind well
Grind smooth adding water little by little
Pour the batter in a big bowl
I have ground both batches of batter and taken in a bowl
Add salt as needed
Mix it well
The batter seems to be thick still, so I am adding little more water
The consistency of the batter should be just like buttermilk
heat a pan on the stove
grease the pan with oil
pan should be hot
Mix the batter well again
Pour a ladle of batter in the pan as shown in the video
close it with a lid
The net like structure should form for the right consistency of batter
If there is no net like structure, your batter is thick
Also, the dosa should cook within 40 to 50 seconds
If not it means you have made the batter thick and dosa will not be soft
see how dosa has turned out well
If you like appam, you will love this neer dosa too
But you don't have to ferment the batter like appam
Even if you soak the rice by 6 o'clk in the morning
you can make hot dosa by 8 or 8.30
I am making another one
Always use flat tawa for making this dosa
If you take tawa/skillet that is not flat
dosa will not turn out good, we will check it out
As you see I have used a pan
Now I will show you in a dosa tawa that is little deep in the center
My dosa tawa is deep in the middle
As we pour the batter instead of sticking to the sides, it will drain to the middle
and so the dosa will not be thin and it will be thick in the middle
It will not be soft as we did in the pan
So, use either a flat tawa or flat dosa tawa for making these dosa
Our neer dosa is now ready
All the side dish that goes well with appam, goes well with this dosa too
Try this dosa in your home
