Poha(rice flakes) Dosa

Today my recipe is poha (rice flakes/atukulu) dosa.This is very smooth and spongy dosa.This dosa is ideal tiffin for breakfast/snack time.This is made up of rice,poha and curd. It is an easy-to-make and nutritious snack.This is  a combination of carbohydrates,vitamins and minerals including iron. You can add vegetables like carrot ,capsicum, tomatoes, paneer and onions for topping. I made it plain only. Usual dosa is very thin and crispy but this is some what thick and spongy. You can use either fresh or sour curd. Some people like to eat dosa with sour taste but I made it with fresh curd I don't like sour curd. I made it with parboiled rice.You should use brown rice /parboiled rice. Don't use white polished rice, it doesn't have any nutritional values. I hope you like it too.....

Happy  cooking..............
