Do soak the rice for at least 6-8 hours.","Grind the soaked rice, dal, and fenugreek together to a very smooth consistency; use a blender for best results.","Add the salt and enough water to make into a dropping consistency, and leave to rise for 5–6 hours, or overnight.","Check consistency of the batter, and if needed, add enough water to make into a smooth pouring consistency.","Heat a tava (dosa pan) until very hot, and splash a little water over it. With a ladle, immediately pour some batter onto the pan, spreading it thin with a circular motion, without pressing too hard. You will need some practice to get it right.","Lower the heat and dribble a little oil around the edges. When edges start browning a bit, it is almost done.","Flip the dosa to the other side, and allow it to cook for a few seconds.","Add desired filling and fold over."],"categories":["Recipes for pancakes","Recipes for flatbread","Recipes for dosa","Dal recipes","Recipes using rice","Recipes using salt","Recipes using fenugreek seed"],"prep_time_minutes":null,"cook_time_minutes":null,"total_time_minutes":null,"servings":null,"yield_text":"20 dosa","difficulty":"medium","source_name":"wikibooks","source_url":"https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Dosa_II","source_ref":"4519140","authors_url":"https://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Cookbook:Dosa_II&action=history","license":"CC BY-SA 4.0","license_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","extraction_confidence":null,"content_hash":"0bcc6c712c15aef516edf21271b5768be1433207b3da9347af0f80b35875dbc9","created_at":"2026-08-02T14:43:01Z","updated_at":"2026-08-02T14:43:01Z","notice":null,"url":"https://recipecontextprotocol.com/recipes/dosa-ii"}
