Here’s a super quick and easy red lentil (masoor dal) dosa recipe that doesn’t require fermentation!
Instant Masoor Dal Dosa
⏳ Total Time: 30 mins (including soaking)
🍽 Servings: 4-5 dosas
Ingredients:
- 1 cup red lentils (masoor dal)
- 2 tablespoons rice flour or leftover cooked rice (optional, for crispiness)
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 green chili (optional, for spice)
- 1/2 inch ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
- 1 to 1.5 cups water (as needed)
- Oil for cooking
Instructions:
- Quick Soak: Wash the red lentils and soak them in hot water for 15-20 minutes (or cold water for 2 hours if you have more time).
- Blend: Drain the lentils and blend them with ginger, green chili, cumin, salt, turmeric, and just enough water to make a smooth batter. It should be slightly thinner than pancake batter. Add rice flour if you want a crispier dosa.
- Cook Dosa: Heat a non-stick pan, grease with oil, and pour a ladleful of batter. Spread it in a circular motion. Cook on medium heat until golden brown, flip, and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes.
- Serve: Enjoy with coconut chutney or any dip of your choice!
💡 Pro Tip: If you want extra crispy dosas, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
