Method of Preparation
Let’s start with the dosa batter
- Add 1 cup of roasted oats and semolina in Atomberg’s 500-ml chutney jar.
- Close the lid and the LED light indicator turns to blue when it is locked properly.
- Now grind it properly until it becomes a perfectly fine powder.
- Don’t empty the jar as yet as we have a little more to add.
- Add 3 small boiled beetroots, 1 inch ginger, 3 Kashmiri red chillies, 1 tbsp salt, ½ tbsp cumin, 1 tbsp jaggery powder and 1½ cup of water.
- Close the lid again and the LED light indicator turns to blue when it is locked properly.
- Let it grind to a smooth and fine paste/ batter.
- Empty the batter to a mixing bowl and add ½ or 1 cup of water to make it thin enough for preparing soft dosas and avoiding mishaps while making.
It’s finally in the making
- Now heat the frying pan, add some cooking oil on it and pour in the batter from the dosa ladle onto the pan.
- Now spread it in the shape of a circle and add 1-2 tbsp of ghee on it.
- Cook both the sides for 1 minute each and put it on the serving plate.
- Voila! It’s done!
Time for the coconut chutney
- Now take out the 500-ml chopper jar and ready it.
- Add pieces of coconut, 2 green chillies, 1 tsp pf tamarind, ½ teaspoon of salt and ½ cup of water.
- Close the lid and once it’s closed properly the LED light indicator will show a blue light.
- Grind it on the Coarse Mode which allows for a silbatta-like texture, reminiscent of home-style cooking.
- Empty the perfectly coarse textured contents of the jar into the serving side bowl.

- Let them cook for ½ a minute and soon pour them into the coconut chutney you just prepared.

Tips/ Tricks
- We can also add pudina chutney instead of coconut chutney, it will definitely make it spicy and delicious as a side-on.
- Make sure that the batter of the dosa is finely ground and there are no bigger chunks left otherwise it compromises with the taste as well as cooking.
- Ensure that the coconut is coarsely ground in order to keep the coarse texture to enjoy it while it lasts.
