Hanchina dosa/ Kappa rotti/ Vodu dosa/Odu dosa

 

My daughter had this dosa at Aloor and she was bowled over. She managed to get the recipe and shared with me. And I prepared this for breakfast. Traditionally it is served with sweetened coconut milk. I had some green tomato chutney and that was also a great combination. And what an item this hanchina dosa is!! It has an amazing texture. You should definitely include this in breakfast items.

Ingredients

2 cups dosa rice – for 8 dosas

1 tsp fenugreek seeds

1 cup cooked rice OR poha (beaten rice)

1 cup grated coconut

Salt to taste

Instruction

-          Wash the dosa rice, fenugreek seeds, and beaten rice. Soak for about 5 hours

-          Grind this with coconut and leave overnight for fermentation. It can be prepared immediately, without fermentation too. The batter should be thinner than that for set dosa, but thicker than neer dosa.

-          Add salt to the fermented batter and mix well.

-          Apply oil on a hot thava and pour the batter. Don’t spread it too thin. Cover and cook on low flame. It is cooked only from one side.

-          Enjoy with sweetened coconut milk or any chutney.
