Rava Dosa

Yesterday night I made Rava Dosa for my dinner. My thoughts went to about 30 or so years ago. 

At that time, it is considered very difficult to make rava dosa at home. It does not turn out like we eat at restaurants. Even now, in many households, they would rather eat rava dosa at a restaurant than making it at home. 

My parents visited my cousin for a few days long time ago. She made rava dosa for them. My parents praised the rava dosa she made and how they enjoyed eating it and sipping coffee with each bite. 

My wife was an expert cook even though she never entered a kitchen until she married me.  She taught her sister in laws how to make rava dosa.

Nowadays it is very easy to make rava dosa. If you look up in YouTube, there are hundreds of videos teaching us how to make rava dosa. These include from renowned chef Venkatesh Bhat to hundreds of no name chefs. 

Here is one of the rava dosas I made last night.

    1. Thanks for your comments Rajesh. That is what I am trying to say. Majority people think rava dosa in a restaurant is much better.

  6. I cannot think of Rava dosa without onion, bits of green chillies,cummins and curry leaves. Unlike the ordinary dosa with smooth rice batter,Rava dosa defies your attempt to make it circular and ends up in odd shape mostly oblong with irregular protrusions. If it is browny roast,with edges breaking,you have the ideal Onion Rava Roast. The rest are pretenders! When I zoomed the picture,I could see the usual pores.Well done.To each according to their taste inmatters culinary!
