Bellam Dosa with Beerkaya Pachadi - Jaggery Dosa with Ridgegourd Chutney - Vellam Dosai with Peerkangai Chutney

Apr 1, 2016 · Modified: Dec 20, 2020 by Priya_Srinivasan ·

Sharing is caring!

For Day 2, i m here with a sweet dosa. When i came across the recipe, i was in two thoughts, whether to try it or to look for another recipe. But then, when we love sweet pancakes, why not a sweet dosa?? So, i went ahead and made this dosa for our breakfast. On a safer side, i made a spicy chutney to balance the flavors. I was little worried that my elder one, my dosa master, would not approve it, but when he tasted it with the spicy chutney he just loved it and gave a thumbs up!!
I strongly suggest you to go for a spicy chutney if you are not used sweet version of dosa/pancakes. This dosa has to be served hot, straight from the pan, so forget about packing in lunchbox. Serve hot and enjoy them flying away from your pan. 

Inspired from here & here
Ingredients

1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
½ cup grated jaggery (See notes)
2-3 pods of cardamom crushed
2-3 cups of water
2 pinches of baking soda 
a pinch of salt

Method

  • Take wheat flour, salt and baking soda in a wide bowl. Mix well with your hands.
  • Take grated jaggery in a sauce pan, add ¼ cup of water, add crushed cardamoms to it. Let it simmer and the jaggery melt. Take it off the stove, strain for impurities.
  • Add the strained jaggery water to the flour, add a cup of water along and mix to form a pour-able dosa batter.
  • The batter will be thick, add water little by little to get the correct consistency. I added about 2 cups of water to get the right consistency, apart from the jaggery water.
  • Heat a tava, once it becomes hot, reduce the flame to simmer. Pour a ladle of batter in the center and quickly spread to form a circle.
  • Dot the edges with little ghee and let it cook for a minute, carefully flip to other side and let it cook for 30 seconds. Remove the dosa onto a serving plate. 
  • This dosa has to be served hot with a spicy chutney to balance the flavors. I served it with spicy beerakaya pachadi/Ridgegourd chutney for a yumm combo.
Notes
  • The original recipe, which i referred used ¾ cup of jaggery, but it was way too sweet for our taste-buds, so i have reduced the quantity here in the recipe

    Personally I love these sweet dosas. I tried making these sweet dosas but the kids have never taken a liking to these. The argument continues pancake vs sweet dosas and the pancakes win 🙂
