    A Step-By-Step Guide - Hotel Style Onion Dosa At Home

    Step 1 - Start by rinsing the dosa rice, urad dal, chana dal, and fenugreek seeds under cold running water. Soak them in water for at least 4-6 hours or overnight. Once soaked, drain the water and transfer the ingredients to a blender. Grind them into a smooth batter, adding water as needed to achieve a thick yet pourable consistency.

    Step 2 - Transfer the preparation to a large bowl, add salt to taste, and mix well. Allow the batter to ferment in a warm place for 8-10 hours or overnight, until it doubles in volume and develops a slight sour aroma.

    Step 3 - In a separate bowl, combine the finely chopped onions, green chilies, fresh coriander leaves, and salt to taste. Mix well and set aside.

    Step 4 - Heat a dosa tawa or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, pour a ladleful of the dosa batter onto the centre of the tawa and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin, even layer. Drizzle some ghee or oil around the edges of the dosa and on the surface. Cook the dosa for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown and crisp.

    Step 5 - Sprinkle a generous amount of the prepared onion topping evenly over the surface of the dosa. Press it gently into the batter using the back of a spoon or spatula. Allow the dosa to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the underside is golden brown and crisp.

    Step 6 - Using a flat spatula, carefully fold the dosa in half or roll it into a cylinder. Transfer the dosa to a serving plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter and onion topping.

    Step 7 - Serve the Hotel Style Onion Dosas hot with coconut chutney, sambar, or any other accompaniment of your choice.

    There you have it, a simple yet delicious recipe for Hotel Style Onion Dosa that captures the essence of South Indian cuisine.
