Making the Dosa :
To make plain dosa, add water into the batter so that the consistency of the batter is thick yet flowing.
Heat a non-stick pan/iron griddle/flat pan.
Spread the batter in a circular shape in one direction to as thin pancake as possible using the back of the ladle.
Increase the heat to medium and let the dosa cook for two minutes. You may also cover the pan with a lid if you are cooking only one side but this is optional
Drizzle some oil along the sides and in the centre and continue to cook the dosa till it becomes crisp on the edges and turns golden brown.
Turn with a spatula when crisp and flip onto the other side. Let this side cook for about 20-30 seconds.
Flip again and fold the dosa into the shape of a triangle or roll it in the form of a cone or as a log or any desired shape.
Proceed to make dosas similar way with the remaining batter.
Serve the dosa hot with any chutney of your choice.
