Do something wrong

its really simple ..

soak 4 cups of parboiled rice and a cup of raw rice, 2 handfuls of urad dal .. nd a teaspoon of fenugreek(methi) seeds for 7-8 hours .. grind all of this with water to a fine batter .. add salt to taste .. and leave it for 8 hours ..

Now to make the dosa .. add water to the batter , and the consistency should not be too watery nor too thick ..

heat a pan .. grease it with oil .. and pour a scoopful of this batter in the centre of the pan and spread it around with the back of the scoop to make it round .. pour a teaspoonful of oil around the dosa .. after it becomes light brown , turn it to the other side with the scoop .. and allow it to stay for a few seconds ..
remove the dosa off the pan and serve it hot with spicy chutney ..

I like this recipe because it is easy to follow and they show pictures.
