Is Instant Jowar Dosa Worth It Without Rice or Urad Dal

Jowar, or sorghum, and little millet are nutrient-rich grains that offer numerous health benefits. **Fermentation** of the batter not only enhances the flavor but also improves its nutritional profile by increasing the availability of vitamins and minerals. 

But if you are looking for a quick recipe, then you may try the instant version too, without fermentation. But I love fermented dosa more.



Ingredients

* 1 cup Jowar atta/ jowar flour, Sorghum Flour

* 1/4 cup Little Millet Flour

* 1/2 cup Curd

* Green Chilies, finely chopped

* Ginger, grated

* Coriander Leaves, finely chopped

* 1/4 cup Water and little more

* Salt to taste

* Ghee or oil for cooking


Instructions

1. **Blend the Batter:** Combine jowar flour, little millet flour, curd, green chilies, ginger, coriander leaves, water in a blender. Blend until the batter is smooth and batter.

2. **Ferment the Batter:** Let the batter ferment for 3-5 hours in a warm place. This process improves the taste, texture, and nutritional value of the dosa. If you do not want to ferment jowar dosa, then make an instant version after resting the batter for 30 minutes.

3. **Cook the Dosa:**Add salt and mix. Heat a roti tawa or iron skillet. Season it before making dosas. I have already shared how to season iron skillet for dosa making. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot tawa and spread it evenly in a circular motion. Drizzle a little ghee or oil around the edges.

4. **Cook and Serve:** Cover and cook on medium heat until the dosa is cooked on one side. Flip it over and cook the other side. Serve hot with your favorite chutney or sambar.
