Dosa (Indian Pancakes) step by step

1. In a deep bowl, mix the urad flour with water. You will need to pour the water as you mix, so have a good amount of water near by. Before I tried this, I was told to mix the urad flour really well (sort of like you would beat eggs) to help with the fermentation process. When you start to mix in the rice flour, you will continue adding the water. Throw in that pinch of baking powder and add the required amount of water and mix until it reaches a batter like consistency. It should not be a thin....
2. Usually after this process the bowl is kept in a nice warm place for a good number of hours before you can make dosa. Living in a not-so warm place, I did not want to turn on the heater and allow the batter to ferment and raise the electricity bill, so I filled a deep pot that I use to make my curries in with warm water, into that went the bowl full of batter, and I put the lid on. This helped the fermentation process.
3. I knew something had happened, because the batter rose and overflowed in the water. Also, it smelt weird :) That sort of freaked Kings and I out but I had that fixed by adding some water, salt and some milk. The smell got fixed!!!! I used my hands (fast mixing motion) to blend everything up than a spatula and I thought it worked :) you can always use a spatula and not your hand if that grosses you out - if you use your hand, make sure you wash your hands before you mix the batter :) :).
4. I cooked the dosa's like you would a crepe on a griddle and served it with some curry.
5. You get a bonus of 3 pics for this post - or should I say ACHIEVEMENT!!!!! The first is of the batter in the bowl, next is a shot of how it looks when its being cooked and ofcourse the OUTCOME - the DOSA :).
