Dosas are South Indian savory crepes traditionally prepared with fermented lentil and rice, served with aloo masala, coconut chutney and sambhar. Traditional rice dosas are bit heavy and is time taking recipe. Rava Dosa on other hand dosas are quicker than traditional dosas as these doesn’t require fermenting, soaking time is also less and top on that this taste super yummy.
Rava Dosa are crispy, thin Dosa made with Rava(semolina), rice flour and all-purpose flour as core ingredients. Rava Dosas are one of my family favorite and handy recipe whenever we are craving for Dosas. These Dosas are kids friendly too. These Dosas taste best when served hot, right from griddle. Serve them with Sambhar, Coconut Chutney, Peanut chutney or you can have them just like that.
