Pori dosa recipe | Puffed rice dosa | Soft spongy dosa without urad dal – Murmura dosa recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.
Traditionally dosa is made using rice and urad dal. Urad dal gives the softness in Idli and dosa. In this recipe, we are not using urad dal, instead, we are using pori | puffed rice. Puffed rice is widely used in making bhel puri.
We use this for making Karthigai pori urundai. I have a huge pack of pori left after making pori urundai for Karthigai. A few days back while talking to a friend, she was telling me about this Pori dosa recipe. I have noted down the recipe and wanted to try this out this time.
A very simple dosa recipe using puffed rice, the recipe turned out so well. The dosa was super soft and spongy. We don’t need to ferment the dosa batter recipe. So it just needs the soaking time.
I have seen a few variations for this recipe on the net. You can soak the puffed rice in buttermilk instead of soaking it in water. This will be similar to the Set dosa recipe.
