DOSA - TOMATO

 
 

  Tomato dosa is very delicious and 
  even very easy to make.  Its a
  South Indian recipe. The making of    
  other dosa follows with the soaking 
  of rice and urad dal for four to five 
  hours. Grinding and fermenting it 
  for about 7 -8 hours.  Making this 
  dosa is very simple and no need 
  of any advance procedures.  Its ripe, 
  spicy and crunchy. These type of 
  dosas especially helps the bachelors, 
  working moms and even for the 
  quick solution of unplanned
  breakfast and for those who likes can 
. have it in afternoon or evening 
  hours as a light tiffin instead of 
  heavy meals. The ingredients used  
  are very few and preparation time 
  almost in seconds. 

 
  The measurement here I have shown 
  is for 3-4 members. Increase it as per 
  the consistency you need. 

 
  PREPARATION

  Take 2 ripe tomatoes, 2 Green chilies, 
  few curry leaves, small piece of 
  ginger, 2 pcs of garlic and grind it 
  well to make a fine paste.  Add 1/2 
  glass measuring 240 ml of Semolina, 
  salt mix it well and keep it aside for a 
  while. Keep it for soaking for five 
  minutes. So that the tomato mixture 
  is observed by the semolina. Keep it 
  in the mixie jar itself as more 
  procedures to be done. If the     
  quantity is more you can transfer to 
  a vessel.

  Add 1/4 glass of rice flour mix it. 
  Taste the salt and add if required. 
  Never add too salt at once. Grind it 
  well into a medium thick batter.      
  Water too add little by little. Add 
  another 1/4 glass of rice flour and 
  mix it. Taste the salt. 


  Place a dosa pan on stove in medium    flame.  Reduce the flame to low    
  when its heated. Apply little 
  sunflower oil on the pan and spread 
  it. Now pour the batter with ladle, 
  spread it and make a circle. Just as 
  you prepare dosas. Only the food 
  product differs. Spread oil with a 
  spoon when the color of the whole 
  dosa changes. Never apply oil on half 
  cooked dosas and turn it over

   If you are making on non stick tavas     and don't prefer oil.You can make it 
   without applying oil. But  the dosa 
   enhances more if imade on ordinary 
   tavas applied with oil.  

   Thus make the dosa one by one.    
   With   above measurement you can 
   get 10-12 dosas. The measurement 
   can be increased or decreased as per 
   the consistency you need. This dosa 
   is best to be had with coconut or 
   onion chutney.  The recipe of onion 
   chutney I am presenting below.



   Take 2-3 medium sized onions. Cut it 
   into length wise. Place a kadai on 
   medium flame. Pour little coconut 
   oil.  Reduce the flame to low. Add 
   little curry leaves when its 
   heated. Add 3/4 tsp of chilly powder, 
  Add the chopped onion and stir until 
  turns transparent and the raw smell 
  goes off. Remove it from the flame. 
  Grind it and make a smooth paste of 
   chutney.

You can reduce the chilly powder if you don't prefer too spicy.
