Ingredients
Rawa (Fine) – 1 cup
Rice flour – 3/4 cup
Q Q Maida (all purpose flour) – 3/4 cup
Black pepper – 1 teaspoon
Jeeragam (Cumin) – 1 teaspoon
Green Chillies – 2 to 3
Fresh ginger – a small piece
Curry leaves – few
Tiny Coconut pieces – 1 tablespoon (Optional)
Salt – 1 teaspoon or as per taste
Oil – as required
Directions
- Mix rawa, rice flour, and maida along with salt. Add water and make a thick batter. Leave it for 30 minutes to one hour.
- Then add enough water to the rawa batter and make it a thin batter.
- Chop green chillies, fresh ginger and curry leaves finely.
- Add chopped chillies, ginger, whole pepper, jeera, coconut pieces, curry leaves to the batter and mix well.
- Heat a tawa. Wipe it with oil. Pour one big ladle of batter starting from the edge of the tawa and finish it in the center. Do not spread it. The batter will spread by itself. Do not try to cover up the holes with the spoon. Leave it like that. Pour a teaspoon of oil around the corners of the dosa. After it cooked one side, flip it over and cook other side also. Remove it.
- Serve with desired chutney/sambar.
Notes
- You can add one big onion chopped finely to the batter, to get Onion Rawa Dosa.
- Instead of Maida (all purpose flour), wheat flour can also be used.
- Cashewnut pieces can also be added to the batter.
- You can also cook this dosa one side only without flipping it over. In that case allow some more seconds to cook it crisp.Green.
- Half teaspoon sugar can be added to the batter. It will give nice brown colour to the dosai.
aunty, when i try to prepare rawa dosa taste is very nice, but it always breaks (Kindi vardhu)… I don’t Know what mistake i’m making. Please help.
Hi Preethi,
If you add maida and make a thin batter, dosa will not break.
thank you aunty . i will try it.
Hi,
Is there a particular Rawa to be used? Is yes please mention.
Thankyou
Ps: ur recipes are awesome 🙂
Thank you Deepthi for your kind words. You can use any type of rawa. However, the fine rawa also known as Bombay rawa soak quickly and better to use.

Thank you so much for your lovely recipes. Can we make this dosa without Maida? If so what changes to be made in proportion of other ingredients?
Adding maida will give base to the dosa. Instead of maida you can add wheat flour also. Or just omit maida and increase rava.
Thank you for the great effort. Every recipe that I have tried is perfect. When I am confused about what to make I visit your page and get great ideas.
Thank you Deepa for your kind encouraging words.
