Method

  1. 1

    Get ready by powdering the jaggery if it has lumps. Keep the wheat flour, rice flour, grated coconut and cardamom powder measured and ready.

  2. 2

    Mix the jaggery with warm water in a bowl for 2 to 3 minutes until it dissolves. Strain it to remove any dirt. Add wheat flour, rice flour, coconut, cardamom powder and the remaining water. Whisk for 3 to 4 minutes until the batter is smooth and thick but pourable, with no flour lumps.

    Cook on low heat for 2 minutes until the top is no longer wet and the underside is golden brown. Drizzle a few drops of ghee, flip, and cook for 1 more minute until the centre is cooked and the other side is golden. Repeat with the rest of the batter; it makes about 8 small dosas.
