Wash and soak the puffed rice separately. Soak rest of the ingredients (except salt) together for 6 hrs.

Once ready to grind, drain the puffed rice and add first to the grinder. Run for a couple of times for it to get ground smooth.

Then add the drained rice and continue grinding to a smooth batter, making sure you add just enough water.

Once the batter is ground to a soft texture, add salt and let it ferment overnight.

If you are going to make dosas right away, proceed to make, else you can refrigerate the batter.

Heat a Tawa and when it is hot enough, spread the batter as a regular dosa. Sprinkle oil around.Cover with a lid and simmer down.

Cook for a couple of mins, remove the lid and cook on open. Do not flip on the other side.

Serve with side dish of your choice.
