Instant Multigrain Dosa for #Breadbakers

When Wendy Klik announced Pancakes for Feb edition of Bread Bakers, I was quite kicked for it allowed yeast free breads as well as the Indian pancakes / crepes a.k.a Dosa. I had bookmarked a couple of Pancakes that my kids would have loved, but didn't get to make this.

And then this Instant, no-ferment Multigrain Dosa fell into place. We are quite fond of savory stuff for breakfasts and so this got made for a rushed morning (pardon the pics, though). It goes well with any dip / chutney but delicious on its own as well. We had this with some lemon-fresh peppercorn-bittergourd pickle

Instant Multigrain Dosa - Vegan and GF too !

Ingredients:

• Buckwheat flour - ¼ cup
• Wholewheat flour - ½ cup (skip for GF and increase the buckwheat by 3 TBSP)
• Rice Flour - ½ cup
• Roasted Semolina - ¼ cup (skip for GF or replace with ½ cup more rice flour OR replace with Rice Rava)
• Besan / Gramflour - 1 TBSP
• Jowar flour (Sorghum flour) - 3 TBSP
• Salt - to taste
• Turmeric - ⅛ tsp

• Tempering : Mustard seeds ¼ tsp, asafeotida (skip for GF), Chopped green chillies 1 tsp, Chopped cilantro / coriander leaves 2 tsp

Tempering is optional, but does enhance the flavour of the dosas

Method:

1. Sift all flours, salt, turmeric thrice over in a large bowl. Add requisite water to make a flowing thinnish batter (not too thick nor too thin).
2. Cover and keep for 20 mins. After 20 mins, prepare the tempering - heat 2 teaspoon oil, splutter mustard seeds, add chillies, cilantro and asafoetida and add to the batter. Mix well. 
3. Heat a skillet, Pour a ladle of the batter into a thinnish dosa/ crepe.
4. Drizzle 1 teaspoon oil - let it cook till crispy on one side (medium heat only - this should take about 2 mins)
5. Flip over, let it cook for 30 seconds and serve hot with any chutney or pickle or sauce

Notes:

1. If you are not tempering the batter, then serve with some spicy sauce. With the tempering, its good to be eaten on its own or with a mild pickle / sauce.
2.  You wont be able to make the normal dosas by the smearing method - you need to drizzle the batter into a thinnish dosa leaving some pockets in between. Almost like a lacy crepe
3. This batter cannot be stored overnight. You may simply make it 30 mins prior to eating as its an instant version
