Udipi style set dosa is a famous snack from South Indian repertoire. Learn how to make
sponge dosa.
To make
set dosa, wash and soak the par-boiled rice, raw rice, urad dal and fenugreek seeds in enough water in a deep bowl and mix well. Cover with a lid and keep aside to soak for 4 hours. Drain and blend in a mixer along with 1 cup of water to make a batter of dropping consistency. Add the salt and mix well. Cover the batter with a lid and keep aside to ferment in a warm place for 12 hours.
Then to make
sponge dosa, heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and grease it lightly with oil. Pour a ladleful of the batter over it and spread it evenly to make a 125 mm. (5”) diameter circle. Cover with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, using a little oil, till it turns golden brown in colour from one side. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 9 more dosas. Serve immediately in pairs with sambhar and coconut chutney.

Tips to make
set dosa. 1. Always soak the batter for atleast 4 hours. It will look like this after soaking. 2. When blending always blend till smooth. Add salt to the batter and mix very well with a spoon or your hands. 3. Ferment always in a warm place, the batter should look like this, so well fermented. 4. Do not cook the set dosa on both the sides, just one side. 5. Covering the set dosa while cooking makes it easier to cook and cooks well. 6. These comforting and satiating dosas are quite a contrast to the usual image of crisp, golden dosas but they are perfect to have with chutney and sambhar or spicier accompaniments like kadala (chickpea) curry, vada curry or saagu.
