Instructions
- Prepare the Dosa Batter: Start by preparing the instant dosa mix powder. If you’re opting for broken rice instead of instant dosa mix, make sure to soak the rice for about 2 hours before use.
- Make the Batter: Mix 1/2 cup of water and curd into the instant dosa mix powder to form a thick batter with a consistency suitable for making dosas.
- Cook the Jackfruit: In a kadai, boil the chopped jackfruit with 1/2 cup of water on medium heat. Let it cook for about 20 minutes until the jackfruit becomes soft. Once cooked, switch off the heat and grind it into a smooth paste.
- Dissolve the Jaggery: In a separate pan, dissolve jaggery with 1/4 cup of water over low heat. Stir continuously until the jaggery completely melts.
- Combine the Ingredients: Add the jackfruit puree, jaggery water, grated coconut, and a pinch of salt to the dosa batter. Mix everything well, ensuring the batter remains thick and does not become runny.
- Cook the Dosa: Preheat a nonstick tawa or griddle over medium heat. Once heated, pour 1 ladle of the batter onto the tawa and gently spread it into a thick pancake-like shape.
- Fry the Dosa: Drizzle a little oil or ghee around the edges of the dosa and cover it with a lid. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes or until the base is golden and crispy.
- Flip and Cook the Other Side: Flip the dosa gently to cook the other side. Let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Serve: Once both sides are cooked to a golden perfection, remove from the griddle and serve immediately.
