Cucumber Dosa (Southekayi Dose)

Rice – 2 cups
Cucumber (peeled and chopped) – 1 small
Salt – 1 tsp

Soak the rice for 4-6 hours. Grind it with some water till it is smooth. Add the chopped cucumbers and salt and grind to a paste. Add water if required. No need for fermentation.
The consistency is thinne than the regular dosa batter…so use a small cup to pour the batter in a circle on a heated and oil smeared pan/tava.

Note: depending on the cucmber size or the rice quality, if the dosa becomes too soft to lift off the tava, don’t fret! Just make a paste of rice flour with water and add it to the batter till you hit the right consistency.

These dosas are yummy with a hint of cucumber taste and a spicy coconut chutney on the side.
