  1. Hi Ruchi,

    I tried this recipe for dosas and they were yum. Can i use this for idli’s too?

  2. looks so delicious….will have to try your dosa varieties…

  3. U have added ragi flour in morning and then said ferment it overnight does that mean to ferment it till next day morning?

    • Yes I have. however the local climate will determine how long your batter will take to ferment. In hot climates, this might be ready in 6-7 hours.

  4. I am a little confused. Pls correct me if I am wrong. The urad n Methi is soaked overnight n ground in the morning. Then raagi flour is mixed and kept for fermenting again overnight. Pls clarify as I would like to try these yummy dosas. Thanks.

    • Yes…you have understood right. However if you live in hot climate…fermentation time might be less, and the batter might be ready in 6-7 hours

  5. tried the dosa. was very tasty. thank you for the healthy recipe.
