Normally, most of the dosas we prepare need some quantity of rice or rice flour to prepare the batter. But this Rava dosa is prepared without using the rice. Only ingredients used here are - semolina (sooji rava) and urad dal. This type of rava dosa will be prepared for breakfast mostly on festival days when people won't prefer having anything made with rice before doing the Pooja. Procedure to prepare the batter for rava dosa is almost similar to the Idli batter.

Preparation time: 30 minutes

Fermentation time: 7 - 8 hours

Servings: 3

Ingredients:

Urad dal - 1/2 cup (soak in water for 2 - 3 hours)

Semolina / sooji rava - 2 cups

salt to taste

Procedure:

Wash the soaked urad dal and grind it into a fine paste by adding little water.

Wash the semolina and drain all the water.

Mix the semolina with urad dal paste and prepare the batter. 

Consistency of the batter will be the same as regular dosa batter. If the batter looks watery, little more semolina can be added to the batter.

Let the batter rest in a warm place for 7 - 8 hours or overnight.

Before preparing the dosa, add salt and mix well. 

Heat the tava and pour a large spoonful of batter on it. Spread the batter a little.

You can add few drops of oil or ghee while cooking the dosa. But this is just optional.

Cook the dosa on both the sides and serve hot with chutney or any other side dish.
