Description

These Dhoodhi Peel Dosas offer a unique twist on the classic Indian breakfast staple by incorporating grated doodhi (bottle gourd/zucchini) peel directly into the batter. The result is a lighter, slightly sweeter crepe with a delicate texture that contrasts beautifully with the crispiness of the dosa. Fermented rice provides the necessary tang and fluffiness, while the doodhi adds subtle moisture and earthiness. Perfect for a quick, wholesome vegan meal or a healthy side dish, these dosas are incredibly easy to whip up. They pair wonderfully with coconut chutney or tangy sambar, making them an excellent choice for weekend brunches or light dinner options. The simplicity of ingredients allows the natural flavors to shine through, creating a comforting dish that feels both rustic and refined.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Rinse the rice thoroughly and soak it in water overnight or for at least 6 hours.
  2. Drain the soaked rice completely, discarding the soaking water.
  3. Grind the drained rice in a blender or food processor until it forms a thick, smooth, and lump-free paste.
  4. Transfer the ground rice batter to a large mixing bowl.
  5. Finely chop the green chilies, ginger, and cilantro leaves.
  6. Add the chopped aromatics, doodhi peel, sour buttermilk, coconut milk, and salt to the rice batter.
  7. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined and the batter is smooth.
  8. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
  9. Pour 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot skillet and spread it into a thin circle.
  10. Cook until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, then carefully flip and cook the other side briefly.
  11. Remove from heat and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
