Who doesn’t love a dosa. It’s India’s super crepe – typically made from lentils, this is fermented overnight, ground and cooked till crispy sorta like a crepe. A Rava Dosa or a Semolina dosa is India’s version to a dosa quick fix without the soaking and fermentation period. Granted this dosa is not gluten free like the original, it’s speed from prep to table make it very popular. I love that I can wake up one morning, decide that we’re going to have dosas and get this on the table asap.

I also love the look of the Rava Dosa, unline a regular dosa, the batter is thin and is just dropped onto a hot surface, giving it a lace like effect. These dosas get super crisp and is a great breakfast food with some potato bhaji or curry or some chutney.
