Dosa Tips by Rajashri

and for all ladies who were discussing about batter prep :
one small tip .. and it worked out really fentabulous for me :P

while soaking rice and urad dal, most of us use to add fenugreek .. apart from this u should also add one hand full of channa dal(kadala parupu), left over rice,poha(optional if you add the LO rice) and also one tsp sugar n salt while grinding rice. i bet u after fermentation if u try dosa it comes out perfectly crispy and the colour of the dosa would be same as like that of hotel roast :) serious.. i tried this.. and it was superb!!

and another tip , before pouring the batter in tawa add a tsp of oil and immediately sprinkle water and then pour the batter for dosa.. evlo mosamana dosa kalla irunthalum dosa stick aavama varum.. becoz my dosa tawa was kevalam. but after trying this tip seriously dosa came perfectly without sticking in the pan ..but for every dosa u need for the same thing . sorry for the delay.. only now i saw it.. do try it and let me know

Poori Tips by kousalya

Wheat flour- 1 cup

Water little less than ½ cup

Oil- 2 spoons

Salt as required

Just mix the salt in wheat flour and add water and make it dough. Get the oil in Ur hands and knead the dough. Let the dough rest for 20 mins at least. Now divide the dough in equal sized balls. The balls should be smooth. Now make the pooris u can use oil/flour for dusting …..Don’t make it too thin .Make sure oil is real hot and slowly drop in poori and slightly press the poori and it will raise when it fully raised turn it over and take it out when both the sides turned to golden brown .

Tip: (if pooris are not raising on above process try this it will help)

If you use presser (roti maker) for making pooris, definitely the poori will be fluffy. If u don’t have presser use the round shape bottle lid(like Horlicks bottle mudi) before frying the pooris just press the poori with round lid, by this u will get proper round shape and because of this pressing the poori will definitely raise perfectly.
