Ingredients needed for making Set Dosa

2 cups idli rice
1/2 cup urad dal
3/4 cup Aval
1 tsp methi seeds
Curd - 1 tbsp.
Salt as needed.
Oil as needed

Method for making Set Dosa

1. Soak idli rice, urad dal, poha and methi seeds in water for 4 hours.

2. Grind all the ingredients and curd by adding enough water to get a dosa batter consistency. Add the salt  and mix well using your hands. Allow the batter to ferment for 6 to 8 hours.

3. Mix the batter well, take the required quantity in another bowl, add little water, turmeric powder and baking soda (optional). Mix well.

4. Heat the dosa tawa and pour a ladle full of batter to a thick dosa. Do not spread out like you do for normal dosas. Since the batter is thin it will spread out as you close with a lid. Add 2 to 3 drops of oil and close this with a lid. Allow this to cook in a medium flame.

5. Now open the lid and serve hot.

Set Dosa is ready to be served with Hot Vada Curry / Chettinad Tomato kuruma / Vegetable Saagu or Coconut Chutney.
