Rava Dosa Recipe | Instant Rava Dosa | Suji Ka Dosa | Crispy Rava Dosa with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Dosa recipes are a staple breakfast for many South Indians. There are myriad ways to make these crepes and can be made with different ingredients and seasonings including different types of dry spices and vegetables. One such crispy and flaky dosa recipe is onion rava dosa or suji dosa known for its thin and porous texture.
I had shared this recipe long back and as a matter of fact, the rava dose video was one of my initial posts. But I was frequently getting a lot of queries regarding the crispiness and how to achieve it in nonstick tawa. In my previous post, I had used my cast iron tawa which was the primary reason for a crisp dosa. In this post, I have showcased the same recipe with non-stick and achieved the crisp and crunchy suji ka dosa. The trick is to roast the dosa on a low flame. In addition, I have added 1 tbsp of sour curd which helps to attain the golden crisp color of the dosa. Further to these, even though the recipe is known as instant, resting the dosa batter for a minimum of 20 minutes yields the best result for a crisp onion rava dose.
Furthermore, I would like to add a few more tips and suggestions to make a perfect crisp instant suji dosa. Firstly, I would heavily recommend using medium or also known as Bombay semolina for this recipe. Do not try with bansi or thick rava or even with fine rava as it may yield soft dosa. Secondly, the consistency of the dosa batter is very critical for this recipe. It has to be watery similar to neer dose and you should be able to pour water on top of the dosa tawa. Finally, the important trick for the crispy result is, the tawa has to be very hot when you pour the dosa batter. Once the batter is poured, quickly turn the heat to low and roast it till it starts leaving the pan. In addition, you may like nonstick tawa as compared to the cast iron dosa pan for this Suji Ka Dosa

why does rava dosa stick to the tawa?
always use a heavy bottom pan or well-seasoned cast-iron tawa to make rava dosa. iron skillet pan is the best to prepare dosas. seasoned tawa is the one which is used earlier to prepare dosa. grease the pan well and rub it with a slice of onion before pouring each dosa. also do not use the same tawa in which you prepare roti or chapati. maintain the tawa separately for both. in case if the dosa sticks to the non-stick tawa, pour a small amount of batter into it and prepare a small size dosa, after 2-3 dosas, the dosas won’t stick to the pan as the tawa would be hot.
why is my rava dosa soft and not crispy?
use only bombay rava or fine rava. the batter should be thin and watery in consistency and not thick or even medium. medium consistency batter also yields soft dosa. add water to the dosa batter to adjust the consistency. adding more curd to the batter may yield soft dosas. the tawa should be very hot and make the flame low soon after the batter is poured into the tawa. every time while pouring the batter on tawa, mix well as the rava and other flours settle down. use a heavy bottom pan or cast iron tawa to prepare dosa so that dosa does not stick to the tawa and helps to get crispy dosa. also, serve dosa hot. else when they cool down, they turn soft.

how to pour the rava dosa batter into the tawa?
the batter should be mainly thin or watery like flowing consistency. then only it’s possible to pour the batter. unlike traditional dosa, here the batter is poured on the tawa and the batter is not spread. pour it all over the tawa beginning from the edges and towards the center and do not pour the batter in one place. fill the gaps by pouring the batter into them. cover and roast in low flame until it leaves the pan.
what does my rava dosa break?
when you pour the batter into the tawa make sure the batter is thin and flowing consistency. if it’s too very thin, the dosa might break. so add rice flour, maida, and rava according to its proportion and adjust the consistency, pour the batter into the pan.
how to season the dosa tawa?
dosa tawa can be seasoned in the following ways: rub the tawa with gingelly oil and soak it in washed rice water for a week. rub the tawa with half onion before spreading the dosas. heat the tawa, sprinkle salt, switch off the flame, wipe with cloth and grease oil after it cools. clean the tawa with hot water and rub it with oil. keep in the oven for one-hour upside down. also do not wash the tawa when it is too hot and do not put cold liquids on the cast iron tawa. avoid hard soaps, detergents, and steel scrubbers.
