Simplest Poha (Beaten Rice) Dosa/Aval Dosa And MORE!
Food memories are uplifted by some Posts, mine surely takes a somersault coming up not only with the dish but the lovely memories attached. A long forgotten dosa, made deliciously tasty by amma, popped to life on the sight of it at Seema's Everyday Cooking - HERE.
Seema's recipes are exact or near to the ones prepared at my maika!
Thanks Seema, for sharing the recipe, bringing back that tasteful memory and though this post comes pretty late, the dosa was tried promptly after setting my eyes on it! I served with runny tomato chutney which is not much blogworthy, proportion of water being bit more than needed!
Hence kindly focus on dosa only :)
Ingredients :
1 cup Sona mussorie rice
1/3rd cup urad daal
1 cup poha (thick variety)
Salt
Method :
Wash rice and daal together, soak for 3 hours. Just before grinding, wash the poha and leave in colander to drain, it will drain and fluff a bit in 5 mins flat! Grind the rice-urad to batter, then add the poha and grind again, check consistency, should be of dosa batter. Add salt, pulse it a bit and transfer to another vessel. TADaaaaaa...no fermenting needed!!!
Grease a hot non-stick tava, pour a ladle - full, spread, cover cook on one side for a minute or two, serve on dish alongside chutney of your choice!

Here are few Dishes from Shilpa's Aayi's Recipes -
SHE's a lovely person and full of patience and perseverance and My TOP FAVE Blogger!
Coorg Chicken Curry- Was absolute tasteful! We had with chapatis and rice!
Chicken Vindaloo
A delicious chicken curry which goes well with chapatis, I need to fry onions a little less, next time I make it! Easy to prepare!
All time fave Naan-katayis - 25 del.cookies of the measure
This time I pressed a piece of pistachio in each.
Wd reduce the baking soda to 3/4th tsp next to avoid salt taste
Added 1/2 cup flour in addition for correct consistency.
Not to forget, Shilpa, I have tried many more dishes from AR without photos, all were liked by family! Happy Spring holidays and vacation to you!

Meera of Enjoy Indian Food is a bubbly and enthu-cook! Two *healthy* posts worth making daily!!! This dish below is a sweet dish of corn, from Tarala Dalal, I made this especially to celebrate her 200th post! Thanks Meera, for being such a sweetheart.
This is called Makai Jajaria , a Udaipur speciality, where fresh corn is grated (I had used frozen sweet corn of US) which worked fine for this sweet. In the pic, I have used one ear of thawed frozen corn, due to lack of time, I didn't grate, but scraped the corn off kernel with a serrated knife.

They too get THUMBS UP sign!! THANKS MEERA!!
Meera, may you eat healthy innovative food from all regions and share them with your simplicity on your blog! With best compliments.
