Millet dosa

Barnyard millet dosa . Check out my blog for more information about the benefits and nutrition provided by adding millets to our diet in some form .

This time I used half of rice and half millets so the dosa has good colour and perfect crispy texture .

The well seasoned tava gives almost nonstick type dosas, you can practically lift the dosa off the pan without a spatula . Regular care and seasoning with daily use will give that beautiful non stick effect . This dosa tava is not even a branded one, bought many years ago from local steel shop at very reasonable rates, unlike the atrocious rates that one can find on line. Do check out my idea on how to season a iron dosa tava and keep it working well .
