Beaten rice(Poha)-fistful
Cooked rice-1/2 cup
Oil-to smear the dosa

Method:
- Soak all the ingredients except poha and cooked rice for 5-6 hours.
- Soak the poha separately for 10 minutes.
- Wash the soaked dals and rice and grind all the soaked ingredients along with the cooked rice, to a smooth batter using water as much as needed.
- Ferment it overnight or 6-7 hours.
- Heat a griddle and spread a ladle of batter in a circular manner,smear oil over the dosa and close the lid and simmer it for a minute.
- Open the lid,higher the flame and roast it until brown spots appear and the dosa turns crisp.
- Transfer it to a plate and serve it hot with chutney and coffee.
- Dosa to be cooked on one side only,you may cook it on the opposite side also if you desire.

Hi Sangeetha,
I made the malli dosa. But, it turned out too soft and not crisp. I’m assuming that the measurement cup that I used was incoorect. Can you please take a pic of the measurement cup and post it in this recipe.
Thanks
Hi Shailaja,I use the normal cake measuring cup or the Indian measuring cup known as paav or at times any small cup also I use.Use the same cup for the measurement for all the ingredients mentioned in the recipe.Cup doesn’t matter.I have no idea what went wrong Shailaja,but may be at times,rice also matters.I prepared with the same measure given in the recipe and it came out crisp.Spread the dosa as thin as possible for the crispier results,close the lid and keep in simmer to cook for a minute,open the lid,higher the flame once done and roast it until crisp….May be these tips might help you…
