To make jaggery dosa, combine jaggery, rice flour, whole wheat flour, cardamom powder and coconut in a deep bowl, add 2 cups of warm water and mix well using a whisk to form a batter of the pouring consistency. Cover with a lid, keep aside for 10 minutes and mix very well. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and grease it lightly using a little ghee. Pour a ladleful of the batter on it and spread it evenly in a circular motion to make 200 mm. (8”) diameter round circle. Smear a little ghee over it and along the edges and cook on a medium flame till the dosa turns brown in colour from both the sides. Fold it over to make a semi-circle. Serve immediately.
Easy and quick vella dosa made with a combination of flours and jaggery, perked up with grated coconut and spiced up with cardamom! The pleasantly sweet aroma of the dosa being cooked on the hot tava is sure to bring all the family members on the dining table.
An easy-to-prepare yet rich preparation, this Indian style rice jaggery dosa is only mildly sweet, so can be served as a teatime snack. This is fit for even a grand dinner menu if you could make a nice sweet and savoury dosa platter by serving this with regular dosa, masala dosa or uttapa.

What kind of chutney we can serve with this dosa?? If possible please provide link of that suitable chutney
A very nice and enjoyable treat with a devine flavour. My favourite
Good one .. made as puja prasaad .. children liked it
This dosa is so delicious. More than what i expected. The jaggery is just perfect in the quantity. it is not too sweet also. The dosa are so soft that they just melt in the mouth. The best part is it does not require fermenting nor it uses plain flour. The combination of rice flour and whole wheat flour is a hit for sure.
wow!!! loved them... was so quick and easy to make... i preferred them a little crispy as i like texture to my food... and guess what enjoy it hot off the pan with a scoop of chilled vanilla ice cream... i bet you a ride to heaven... my dad loved it a little soft and mushy so i decided to stuff them with finely chopped dates... so wats ur way to heaven... crisy or mushy....?
Nice sweet dosa and lovely for a dessert when you are not serving South Indian food.
