Lately, I have been very busy. Busy work days, busy evenings trying to keep a toddler entertained and then if I still have any energy left, I work from home. I have missed updating this place. Today I realized that it has been more than 2 weeks since I posted here. So I thought I have to post something, before I totally lost the touch.
This dosa is inspired by my aayi’s ganva polo (wheat flour dosa). She makes it for dinner on Panchami – when my parents don’t eat rice for dinner and make something with wheat. V is a big fan of ganva polo and keeps asking for it. I recently started making it regularly since Ishaan also enjoys it. I changed the traditional recipe to add rice flour and a seasoning to it.
Ingredients:
1 cup wheat flour
2 tbl spns rice flour (optional)
2 tbl spns fresh/frozen coconut
Oil
Salt
Seasoning (optional):
1/2 tea spn mustard seeds
4-5 curry leaves
Method:
Mix wheat flour, rice flour, coconut, salt and water. Make it quite watery.
Heat oil add mustard seeds, curry leaves. Add the seasoning to the batter.
Heat tava and spread dosa. Cook from both sides. Serve hot.
Serves : 2-3
Preparation time : 20mins

Hi Shilpa,
This version of dosa tastes yummy…its crunchy too n also healthy too…I do it regularly….My family likes this a lot…
I love how lacy the dosa is! Can u give an approx of how much water u have used?
I use approximately 1 and 1/2 cups water for 1 cup dry ingredients. So for above quantity, it is approximately 1 and 3/4 cup water (considering the rice flour and wheat flour)
Such a quick n easy recipe. Perfect for busy days 🙂
Thanks for this Delicious & healthy dosa version

i prepare this type of dosa without rice flour and coconut. But i use a bit of soda to the batter.
Hi,
This looks really delicious. 1 tablespoons Cumin seeds can be added for better taste.
Hi,
Do you use a non stick tava? i tried these but they did not come out so lacy as they appear in your pictures..
Also i am curious, do you work? your words ” work from home” just made me think so.. 🙂
Yes, I used nonstick. Yes, I work for a software company

Tried it n loved it too. Moreover my two year old son had it without any tantrums :-), perfect recipe for an unplanned breakfast in the morning, thanx again
Wheat Dosa can also be called Godhuma dosa. wow one of my favourite dosa recipes. I love Aayi Recipes.
hi shilpa will try this. look awesome. a great choice when you forget to soak rice for dosa and do not want to eat chappati. thanks.
i never know that dosa can b prepared in this way also.thanx
bahut badiya recipe hai easy to cook
Texture looks like rava dosa.. For seasoning, you can add red chilles and for masala dosa color u can add one table spoon of sugar.. Website is interesting..
I tried this dosa last saturday and it was really good. since the batter was thin i made an outer circle and then gradually filled inside. thank you so much.
I love to go thru your recipes & try them out. Can we substitute rawa for the rice flour or will it not give the same results?
I think texture will be different. But it should work
This dish was awesome and my kids loved it. First try and successful but I added 2 tsp of sugar into the mixture. It was superb and i regularly visit ur site but this is my first comment. Thanks again.
Great i like it.Nice recipes.
Thanks.
Will try this for tom morning breakfast. hope it comes like how you showed in your picture.
