HELLO FRIENDS,

Today, I will be showing you a very quick Recipe for SOFT BUN DOSA.

At times it happens, we are in a situation when some unexpected guest visits our house and we have a shortage of time to get prepared for their Breakfast.

At that time we are in search of recipes that are quick, tasty, and appetizing.

This is a BUN DOSA, which is very soft and fluffy like a Bun and so named as BUN DOSA.

But we do not use any Bun while making this recipe.

Instead, we will be using, Puffed Rice and Semolina as the main ingredients.

Puffed Rice or Murmura is a Rice product and Semolina is a wheat by-product.

We will be using the above ingredients with curds and some fresh herbs and fruit salt.

Let us see the proportions in which we need these ingredients.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR MAKING SOFT BUN DOSA

Puffed rice-2 cups
Semolina-1 cup (thick or thin)
Sour curds-1 cup
Oil-1 tablespoon
Salt-1 level teaspoon
Fresh Green chilies-4-5 (finely chopped)
Curry leaves-8-10 numbers (finely cut)
Mustard seeds-3/4 teaspoon
Urad dal-1 teaspoon
Eno fruit salt-1 small packet or 1 small teaspoon
Plain water-1 tablespoon
Plain water-1 cup (for batter)

PREPARATIONS NEEDED TO BE DONE FOR SOFT BUN DOSA

take a mixer jar and grind the Puffed Rice.

Take a mixing bowl and add Semolina to it.
Add the ground Powder Puffed Rice, Salt, and curds to the mixing bowl.

Combine them all to form a smooth and thick batter.
You may need 3/4 cup to 1 cup of plain water for a smooth batter.

Leave for 5 minutes to rest.
Keep a frying pan, add oil to it, and keep on a low flame.
Now add mustard seeds, hing (asafoetida), and Urad dal.
When done, add the chopped green chilies & curry leaves.

Now mix this garnishing with the Batter and give it a good mix.

Just before making Dosa, add the fruit salt and a tablespoon of water.

Now mix it lightly with the Batter and you will see that the Batter becomes very light and smooth.
The batter of SOFT BUN DOSA IS READY FOR USE.

method of making soft bun dosa

Keep a deep frying pan to heat on a low flame. A deep frying pan is preferred to get the proper shape of BUN DOSA.
When the pan gets heated, smear some oil on the bottom and sides.

Now pour a big ladle full of batter into the pan.

Cover the pan for 1 minute and let the dosa cook.

Now carefully flip the Dosa.

Put a few drops of oil on the sides of Dosa.
After a minute, this side also gets roasted.
Remove on a serving plate, with chutney.

A VERY SOFT, FLUFFY, TASTY BUN DOSA IS READY TO SERVE.

(You can pile up these dosas one on another to keep it soft and can carry these for your lunch box.)
