THAKKALI DOSAI/TOMATO DOSA
I came to know that this variety of dosa can be made through one of my room mates Usharani, during my hostel days.I tasted the dosa and it was very similar to the dosa my mom makes just by grinding rice and fermenting it for the next day. And this dosa need not be fermented as tomato is there for tanginess! We all love this,family favourite 
. Sorry I could not click stepwise this time

Ingredients:
| Idly rice | 2 cups |
| Red ripe tomatoes | 3, big sized |
| Red chilli powder or red chilli | 1 tsp or 3-4 nos. |
| Salt and water | As needed |
To temper:
| Oil | 2 tsp |
| Mustard | 3/4 tsp |
| Urad dal | 1 tsp |
| Asafoetida | 2 generous pinches |
| Curry leaves (optional) | 1 sprig |
| Onion | 1 big,,chopped finely |
Method:
- Soak rice for minimum 3 hours. Grind it in mixer or grinder along with tomato,redchilli.
- Add required salt and water. Consistency should be watery than our usual dosa batter.(slightly thick than rawa dosa batter)
- Heat tawa and add 2 tsp oil,temper with mustard,urad dal,curry leaves,asafoetida and then fry onion till just transparent and add it to the batter. I usually do this with coconut oil as it adds a great flavour.
- Pour in the heated tawa with drizzle of oil,cook on both sides. Serve with coconut chutney.
I usually soak rice overnight and morning grind it in mixer,make it for breakfast…

Thank you for the recipe! This recipe is totally new to me and I tried it out today. The dosa was very tasty! I added some green chillies and cilantro too to the dosa. I love that it is almost instant and I don't need to wait and ferment it!

Combining the hearty healthy tomato with the traditionally yummy dosai is rather creative and adds that dash of good health and cheer to an otherwise normal dish! Today, with more and more lifestyle related diseases like obesity and diabetes plaguing us Indians, such a recipe would do us a world of good, not to mention cater to our taste buds!
