Tips & Secrets

  • Using parboiled rice is mandatory for achieving the most professional-grade crisp and non-sticky dosa texture.
  • Ensuring the batter is fermented until perfectly bubbly is the absolute secret to achieving a professional-grade airy crunch.
  • The addition of a little semolina (Rava) to the batter provides a more sophisticated professional-grade golden finish.
  • Always spread the batter in one direction; this is the professional key to providing the signature professional-grade uniform thickness.
