Equipment

  • Blender
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Non-stick tawa or cast-iron griddle
  • Ladle
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1-2 medium-sized Beetroot peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup Rice Flour
  • 0.5 cup Semolina (Sooji/Rava) fine preferred
  • 0.5 cup Plain Yogurt (Curd)
  • 1 small piece Ginger peeled
  • 1 Green Chili to taste
  • 1.5 cup Water
  • 1 teaspoon Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons Oil/Ghee for cooking

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a blender, combine beetroot, ginger, and green chili with 1/4 cup water, blending until smooth.
  • Whisk together rice flour and semolina in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the beetroot puree, yogurt, and salt to the dry ingredients, gradually adding water until a smooth, pourable batter forms.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 10-15 minutes for the semolina to absorb moisture.

Cooking

  • Heat and lightly grease a non-stick tawa or cast-iron griddle over medium-high heat.
  • Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot griddle and spread outwards in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
  • Drizzle oil or ghee around the edges and cook for 2-3 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
  • Gently loosen and fold the dosa, serving immediately; repeat with remaining batter, stirring between dosas.

Notes

For extra crispiness, ensure the griddle is hot before pouring the batter. Adjust green chili to your spice preference.
