Masala neeru dose/dosa (Tellavu )


Neeru dose/dosa (Tellavu - in havyaka kannada) is prepared generally in south canara district of karnataka.  Neeru means water, that is the dosa batter thickness is similar to water thickness. Dose thickness is depends on the batter thickness. If batter is more watery, then the taste of the dose is perfect, soft & thin...

Since my hubby don't like soft neeru dose, I have to make some changes. While grinding the rice I have added coriander powder , chilli powder , jeera powder  & chiroti rawa. You can use your own variety of masala powder. Spreading the dosa on tawa is also another technique.  since the batter is too thin, you have to just pour it over the tawa quickly. I have used non-stick tawa , so it was easy to take out the dosa. If tawa is not non-stick one, apply little oil before spreading dosa.







Ingredients :

Dosa rice : 1 cup
Chiroti rawa : 1/2 cup
Salt : according to taste.
Coriander powder : 2 spoons
Jeera powder : 1/2 spoon
Chilli Powder : 1 spoon
Garam masala (Optional) / or any other masala powder
Chopped vegetables/leaves:  onion/coriander leaves / tomato : For spreading over dosa.

Method:


  1. Soak dosa rise overnight.
  2. Grind rice with coriander powder , jeera powder , chilli powder ,chiroti rawa, salt with water till very smooth paste.
  3. Add some more water & prepare thin batter.
  4. Now pour the batter over heated tawa , spread chopped vegetable/leaves over the dosa.
  5. Cover the dosa & let dosa leaves the tawa on the sides. 
  6. If you want crispier one leave it for some more time.
  7. Now take out the dosa from tawa & serve with chutney.
