  • 1/2 Cup Poha
  • 1/2 Cup Grated coconut
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 tsp Oil
  • 1 tbsp Jaggery * Optional

Instructions

  • Wash rice 2-3 times and then soak it for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, deseed the cucumber and cube the rest including the peel.
  • Grind the rice, grated coconut, cucumber, poha, and salt with a little bit of water into a thick batter.
  • Leave the batter overnight or for 6-8 hours. Let it ferment.
  • Heat a pan. Apply some oil to the surface. Pour a ladle of the batter on the hot pan. Spread it only a little( it has to be thick so it turns fluffy) and let it cook by placing a lid on it.
  • Lift the lid. Hole formation will be clearly visible on the dosa then flip it over to cook on the other side.
  • Serve it hot with chutney, pickles, dips etc

For making the sweeter version of Magge Dosa

  • In the grinding phase, add jaggery to the batter.
