For me, making perfect South Indian style dosa is a life long that is never fulfilled.Whenever I try to make dosas either my dosa batter is not properly fermented or it’s consistency is ruined but I could never make them as Mr Husband wants. So sometimes to rescue myself from that as quoted by him “you can not make dosas”, I sometimes make not the original but almost like dosa,the semolina dosa. I don’t know for some reason I find it easier to shape the Rava dosa rather that making the traditional one. My daughters love them and enjoy every single bite of it.

Tell me about it !! My friends find it amusing that being a South Indian I don't make fermented dosa at home on a regular basis. Adding some flax to dosa batter is a nice way into the seeds
Rava flax dosas are looking very inviting and that flax meal definitely adds a healthy punch.
Those dosas look so appetizing, Sapana. The setup looks very neat!
This dosa looks so nice Sapana. Very colourful and love the addition of rava in this. We do a different rava dosa with a very thin batter.
I have loads of flax seeds. this is a great idea to use them in dosa.
wonderful idea to sneak in flax seeds in dosas..and the dosa looks very tempting.
Nice idea of using flax seeds in dosa,sounds interesting..

Beautiful dosa. I cannot believe you cannot make them. These look professional.

How love this flax seed dosa. Never thought flax seeds can be used in this way.
This version of rava dosa looks awesome. Usually out regular rava dosa is shapeless and using a very thin batter. Am trying this for breakfast tomorrow!
I was looking for our regular rava dosa, which is very thin and lacey, these dosas sound interesting. Love the addition of flax seeds!
