Neer Dosa
2 cups Raw Rice
Salt, to taste
Oil, fry frying
Wash and soak the rice for 2-3 hours (I soaked it overnight). Then grind to a very thin paste. Remove from the grinder and add salt and water to make a very thin consistency. (And when it says thin, it has to be just a little thicker than water! Otherwise, it just doesn't get cooked on the dosa pan.)..
Heat the dosa tava, apply a little oil and pour one ladleful of batter so it spreads in a thin, even layer. Cover and keep for a second. Then remove it carefully.
They were quite lovely towards the end! I served it with coconut chutney and tomato curry.
This is for Valli's Dosa Mela at Cooking4allseasons.

arundati, it takes time to master this art of making neer dosa and looks like u have mastered it well:) we do add little bit of coconut when grinding for the batter though.

@ sia - i far from mastered the art, i think!! lol! I've had much better. I know that the first few were bad but I kept adding more and more water and it finally became quite nice at the end. I've heard its quite an art! Thanks for the compliment! :) will try the coconut next time.
@ bee, kamala, cham - thanks!
@ shriya - let me know how it turns out.
@ shankari - as sia says above, you could add coconut, if you'd like.

In reply to your query for the yeast in my blog :
one pkt has 1/4 OZ which makes it approx 2 1/4 tsp.if u have the same..then go for it..or u can measure out the spoons and use them..even if u have 2 tsp, it shud suffice.

Love the neerdosa. I loved the first picture of batter very much.
@ anjali - let me know how it turned out
@ vaishali - true! I should start a 3-ingredients or less event - there's lots of stuff we can make out there!
@ sandhya, vanamala, uma, meera, shubha - Thank you!
@ DK - Far from perfect - not sure about ridges and valleys all over the dosa! But oh well, not bad either. Thanks for the yeast info - got the other ingredients.
@ Deepika - I've always been a little intimidated by Neer Dosa, but figured the Dosa Mela was a good opportunity to try it!
lovely dosassss arundhathi
Dosa's are looking Good. Chutney's by the side are tempting me to try a bit!
@ sagari and lavi - thanks so much! :)
hi Arundhati, very nice dosa, how come so pearly white, sorry i'm very poor in south indian dishes,looks very nice, feels like making now n eating ....
Hi Neha - Thanks! Hmmm I'm assuming its so white because its only raw rice - there are basically no other ingredients!
This is really different and interesting looking!
How do you grind rice? Do you use a food processor? I'm not sure mine will be able to grind rice, any reccomendations?
Hi Ranjani - thanks for stopping by. You could use a food processor, but it never gets as fine as you'd like.
Ground Raw Rice can be bought as such in the store.
Thanks for recommendation, I'll be on the hunt for ground raw rice, It'll be a first!!
They are quite easy to find - especially in Indian store. I'm sure the International foods aisles or a Whole Foods will definitely carry it.
Thanks!
Will check it out over the weekend!
you are very welcome - i hope you find it...
Found raw rice at Whole Foods!
Going to make the dosa this weekend:)
Yaay!
very cool - let me know how it turns out!
