How to Prepare

Heat the dosa tawa on medium flame and lightly grease it with oil.
Pour a ladleful of batter in the center of the tawa and spread it thinly in a circular motion to form a large, open dosa.
Drizzle a teaspoon of oil around the edges of the dosa.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges turn golden and crisp.
Flip the dosa and cook for another 1 minute on the other side (optional, as open dosa is often cooked on one side).
Remove from the tawa and serve hot with chutney and sambar.
