You dont need to grind or to ferment this batter. It is a very simple, nutritious and extremely tasty breakfast or snack which can be prepared in no time.

1 cup oats

¼ cup roasted rava (semolina)

¼ cup rice flour

¼ teaspoon finely chopped ginger

3 green chilies finely chopped

1 onion finely chopped

Heat the iron dosa tava and grease it with oil. Take a laddle of batter, drizzle it from corners and finish it in the center. Do not spread the batter, with the back of the laddle just like we do for regular dosa.

Fill the large gaps with little more batter. Sprinkle some oil around the sides and cook it till turns golden brown and crispy.

Flip to other side and cook till it turns crispy.

Transfer to plate and enjoy crispy, hot oats dosa.

Notes:

If the batter is thick, you may not get crispy dosa. So add 2 to 3 tablespoons water (or as required) and set the thin batter.

If the batter is too thin, when u pour the batter, it begins to accumulate in the center and dosa will become sloggy, with no shape. So add 2 to 3 tablespoons rice flour(or as required), to make batter little more thick.

Use iron pan for best results.
