Tomato Dosa

This dosa brings a very welcome variation for the regular breakfast in Tamil families. For others, it sounds like a great treat!

Ingredients:

* 1 1/4 cup raw rice and 2 tbsps of tur dal, soaked in water for 2-3 hrs

* 2 tomatoes chopped

* 2 tbsp grated fresh coconut (optional)

* 2-3 dried red chillies

* 1 tbsp chopped coriander leaves (optional)

* salt to taste

* oil as required

Procedure:

1 Drain and grind smoothly the rice and tur dal with chopped tomatoes, dried red chillies, grated fresh coconut, coriander leaves, salt and little water to form a dosa-like batter.

2 Heat non-stick tawa on high flame till hot, reduce heat, pour a ladle full of dosa batter, spread the batter with the bottom of the ladle evenly making circles to form a dosa and drizzle with some oil along the edges. Cook on medium heat for 1-2 mts and increase to high flame for a few seconds and flip the other side and cook for 20-30 seconds or till done.

3 Serve hot with coconut chutney, small onion chutney or molaha podi.
