  • Take 1/4 cup of dosa batter and gently pour this batter onto the center of the pan.
  • Now begin to spread the batter in sweeping circular motions to form a circle.
  • Apply oil and ghee over the surface of the dosa and also around its edges.
  • When the dosa turns brown, it means its crispy and almost done.
