Poha dosa or Atukula Dosa

Ingredients -

Idli rice or raw rice - 1 cup
Urad dal - 1/4 cup
Methi seeds - 1/4 tsp
Poha or beaten rice - 1/2 cup
Curd - 1/2 cup
Salt - as per requirement

Method

  1. Wash rice, urad dal with water.
  2. Add a little water to curd and beat well.
  3. Take these in a vessel. Add methis seeds, poha and buttermilk.
  4. Adjust water level such that the rice and dal have enough water to soak well.
  5. Keep aside for 4-5 hours.
  6. Drain the liquid and keep aside.
  7. Add the rice-dal mix to the mixie. Grind to a smooth batter using the reserved liquid.
  8. Add salt and let the batter ferment  overnight.
  9. Next day morning, heat a tawa and make thick dosas similar to uthappams. 
  10. Cover with a lid and cook on one side only.
  11. Serve hot with any chutney.
Notes

When the batter is poured on the tawa, there will be formation of many holes in the dosa. This is an indication that the batter has fermented well. If there are no holes or very few of them, then a pinch of baking soda can be added to the batter. Beat the batter and make dosas.
