As we all know, breakfast is the most important meal of a day. For most of us, making dosa and idli is one of the easiest things to do, unless we have the batter ready. YES!, if we have a readymade batter. But, what if we are even out of dosa batter.
I know, you are all ready with a long list of alternatives :). Buy readymade batter, go out and dine, or prepare something else, etc etc.. But, these reasons will not satisfy when you really want to have a homemade food and especially if someone is craving for dosa. BE EASY!! here’s when instant dosa comes for rescue.
Oats Dosa is a quick and easy dosa, which makes a healthy breakfast too. Traditionally, for making dosa, you need to go through all three important steps; soaking, grinding and fermentation. But, instant dosas don’t require these procedures, as the name defines, its instant and quick.
- Make sure the skillet is nicely hot, before pouring the batter to get a lacy structure.
- Rice flour makes it crispy.
- I’m not a fan of refined flours, so I prefer to use wheat instead of rava.
