OATS DOSA

• OATS IS VERY NUTRITIOUS AS IT IS FULL OF FIBERS.IT HELPS IN WEIGHT REDUCING.
• IT IS GOOD TO CONTROL DIABETES,LDL CHOLESTROL.
• IN INDIAN KITCHEN ,NOW A DAYS  OATS PORIDGE IS USING IN BREAKFAST.I WANT TO MAKE FROM IT SOME YUMMY DISH SO I DECIDED TO MAKE OAT DOSA IN RAVA DOSA STYLE.
• ACTUALLY I LIKE RAVA DOSA BUT DUE TO REFINED FLOUR/MAIDA I WANT TO AVOID IT.IN THIS RECIPIE I REPLACE THE MAIDA FROM OATS.
• IT IS FILLING BUT GUILT FREE DISH.

• BATTER SHOULD BE WATERY LIKE THICK BUTTER MILK.

    

BATTER OF INSTANT OAT DOSA

• TAKE ONE ONION & PEEL IT .CUT IT FLAT AT THE BASE SO THAT IT CAN STAND UPRIGHT.TAKE A FORK & PRICK IT.SOAK THE ONION IN THE OIL.THIS WILL BE USED AS YOUR BRUSH TO SMEAR THE PAN WITH OIL.
• TAKE A GRIDDLE.KEEP IT IN HIGH FLAME FIRST FOR A WHILE.NOW WIPE/SMEAR IT WITH OIL WITH THE ONION BRUSH SO THAT IT IS COATED WITH THE THIN FILM OF OIL.

• SPRINKLE THE ONION ,GREEN CHILLY,CASHEWS ON  GRIDDLE.
• ADD THE CHOPPED CORIANDER LEAVES IN THE BATTER.
• NOW POUR THE BATTER  ON THIS GRIDDLE WITH LADDLE FROM SOME HEIGHT.
• A LOT OF HOLES WILL COME IN THE DOSA.
• ALLOW IT TO COOK TILL IT BECOME GOLDEN BROWN FROM BOTTOM SIDE.
• DRIZZLE THE REFINED OIL OVER THE DOSA.
• RELISH IT WITH SAMBAR OR COCONUT DALIA SPLIT CHUTNEY.

TIPS:

• U CAN ADD SHREDDED CARROT,COCONUT,CORIANDER LEAVES IN THE BATTER.
• STIR THE LADDLE IN BATTER BEFORE MAKING EVERY DOSA.AS FLOUR HAS TENDENCY TO SIT IN THE BOTTOM.
• BE GENEROUS ABOUT REFINED OIL OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT COME OUT CRISPY.
• BEFORE POUR THE BATTER ON GRIDDLE,IT SHOULD BE ON HIGH FLAME FOR A WHILE .THEN REDUCE THE FLAME ON MEDIUM & POUR.THE BATTER.IN THIS WAY,IT WILL COME OUT CRISPY.

VARIATIONS:

• YOU CAN ADD THE WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR IN THE PLACE OF RICE FLOUR.
