When we were doing M.Phil at the University of Madras….myself, Sugumar and Jayanthi…used to have breakfast in the canteen all the time. And Sugumar prefers this Muttai Dosai, most of the time. We started teasing him for that. Well…anyway he says…this is the only tiffin they make ‘suda suda after you order’! Well…makes sense.

Ingredients:

Parboiled rice 1 cup
Raw rice 1 cup
Urad dal 1/2 cup
Fenugreek seeds 1 spoon
Salt
Soda
Sesame oil 1-2 spoons
Sesame oil for making dosa
Country/Regular Eggs 6-8/as many as dosas.

Method:

Mix all the above said ingredients except salt, soda and oil. Soak them in water for about 5 hours.

Wet grind them….to thin paste. Maybe with limited water.

Now add salt, soda dissolved in water and sesame oil.

Let it to ferment….maybe 7 hours.

Once the fermentation part is over…..the dosa batter is ready.

Smear a spoon full of oil or ghee on a hot tawa. Take a table spoon full of batter and make a thin crepe. Maintain the stove on low flame only. Cover with lid.

Add few spoons of ghee or oil at the edges of the crepe. Crack an egg, held right above the top. Then using a fork…spread it thinly to all over the dosa. Its not necessary to turn the other side.

Serve warm along with chutney,sambar or korma.
