Soaking the Ingredients:

  1. Thoroughly wash the rice, poha, and urad dal.
  2. Soak the rice and fenugreek seeds together for 6 hours.
  3. Soak the urad dal separately for 2 to 6 hours.
  4. Poha can be soaked separately for 1 hour or with rice.

Grinding the Batter:

  1. If using a mixer, grind urad dal and rice separately.
  2. In a wet grinder, grind urad dal first for 2-3 minutes, then add other ingredients.
  3. Drain water from the soaked urad dal, and grind it with 1 to 1.5 cups of water into a smooth batter. Pour into a bowl.
  4. Grind rice and poha with 1 cup of water until smooth. Combine with urad dal batter, add salt, and grind for another 5 minutes.
  5. Pour the batter into bowls or airtight containers, cover, and let ferment for about 10 hours.

Cooking Set Dosa:

  1. Heat a flat non-stick griddle (tawa) or dosa pan.
  2. Wipe the tawa with an onion slice dipped in water and oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Pour a ladle of batter onto the hot tawa, spreading it gently into a thick pancake.
  4. Cook on medium heat, adding oil around the edges and on top. Cover and cook for about a minute.
  5. When the top looks cooked, flip and cook for another 30 seconds until golden.
  6. Serve in sets of three with tomato chutney or your favourite chutney.
