    Instant Dosa Recipe (No Ferment)

    I found that i have not posted separate dosa batter or soft idli batter, even though i experiment a lot with these. I made my dosa batter each time differently and note down the texture of each one and find the best among them.

    You can check out my tiffin sambar recipe, chutney recipes for side dish.

    This dosa batter is kind of different one, normally you make dosa batter the day before, allow it to ferment and then use it the next day. But this one is an exception, you don't have to ferment it, Just grind it and use right away. I am telling you you don't sacrifice the real taste of dosa.

    This dosa turned out to be crispy and equally good to normal dosa. I served it with my tiffin sambar recipe and it was a total hit. I was really proud that i found a perfect recipe if you don't have much time on hand. The cool thing is you can make this dosa batter in mixie, so no need to take heavy grinders out and you don't waste time in washing that up. So try this out and let me know how it turned out for you.

    Ingredients for No Ferment Dosa Recipe 

    1. Rice - 1 cup ( I used normal cooking rice )
    2. Whole Urad Dal / Ulundu paruppu - 11/2 cup
    3. Readymade Rice Flour - 1 cup

    5. Water as needed

    How to Make Instant Dosa Recipe

    1. Wash rice and dal well in lots of water. Soak them overnight. Drain them and set aside.
    2. Now Take the soaked dal and rice in a blender, add rice flour and puree them. Add in water and blend them till they are well blended.
    3. Pour this in a bowl and add in salt. Add some water if needed and mix well. The batter shouldn't be too thick or too thin.
    4. Now heat a tawa, pour a ladleful of batter in and make thin dosa. Drizzle some ghee or oil around the sides and cook on medium heat till it is golden.
    5. Fold and serve.

    Prep Time 15 mins
    Cook Time 2 mins
    Soaking Time 8 hrs
    Total Time 8 hrs 17 mins
    Course Breakfast
    Cuisine South Indian
    Servings 4 servings

    Ingredients
      

    • Rice - 1 cup I used normal cooking rice
    • Whole Urad Dal / Ulundu paruppu - 11/2 cup
    • Readymade Rice Flour - 1 cup
    • Salt to taste
    • Water as needed
    • Oil or Ghee for Panfrying

    Instructions
     

    • Wash rice and dal well in lots of water. Soak them overnight. Drain them and set aside.
    • Now Take the soaked dal and rice in a blender, add rice flour and puree them. Add in water and blend them till they are well blended.
    • Pour this in a bowl and add in salt. Add some water if needed and mix well. The batter shouldn't be too thick or too thin.
    • Now heat a tawa, pour a ladleful of batter in and make thin dosa. Drizzle some ghee or oil around the sides and cook on medium heat till it is golden.
    • Fold and serve.

    Notes

    • Wash rice and dal very well and then soak them.
    • While blending, the rice wont get too smooth. If it is a little grainy it is not a issue, But the dal should be too smooth.
    • I used store bought rice flour for the dosa and it worked perfectly.
    • In this dosa, since there is no fermenting, the consistency of the batter is very important. You should make it little pouring consistency, not too thick or too thin like rava dosa.
    • Cook it on medium heat till it gets nice colour on the dosa.
    • You can store this batter in fridge for two to three days.
    • This dosa is best when made thin, don't make it thick.
    • If you see that the batter is not spreading properly, then add little water to it. The consistency is the problem.
    • Serve this dosa with sambar, coconut chutney or tomato chutney.

        Hello!
        I am from India and I live in Illinois currently, and it's very difficult to get fermentation for dosa batter.
        I tried your instant dosa recipe and it's wonderful! I made dosa in cast iron tava without any difficulty!
        Thank you so much! You made my life and cooking in the US 10 times better and easier!

      The photo shows only half cup of Whole Urad Dal / Ulundu paruppu - so let me know the correct measurement.. half cup or one & half cup.

      உங்கள் பதிவுகளை தொடர்ந்து படித்து வருகிறேன். மிகவும் பயன்யுள்ளதாக இருக்கிறது. வாழ்த்துக்கள்..

      Hi Aarthi,

      Can I use split urad dal instead of whole one? Also, if I add some fruit salt to this batter, do you think we can make idlis out of it?
      Thanks a lot

      @Seema DwivediI would suggest using whole urad dal, since it gives best result, but you can give a try.

      Amd i dont think this batter works wellfor making idlies.

      @Avniit may be because of the pan which you used to make this too. Add tiny bit of sugar to the batter and make dosa it will turn brown
