neer dosa recipe | how to make neer dosa | neer dose | neerdose with detailed photo and video recipe. a popular dosa variation prepared with rice batter hails from the udupi and mangalore cuisine. it is a simple, easy and quick morning breakfast recipe, without the hassle of urad dal batter. it is famously served with coconut based gravies like kori gassi, channa gassi, but also tastes great with spicy kara chutney too.
i personally like a crisp neer dosa recipe while i prepare it for myself. but in this recipe, i have shown a smooth and tender neerdose which is how it is generally prepared in udupi and mangalore region. i add 2-3 tbsp thin beaten rice or poha while preparing the batter which makes it crisp, very similar to rava dosa. but it is not a general practice and i recommend you if you are after an authentic recipe. as a matter fact, i have already shared an instant version of neer dose made from plain rice flour. basically, the traditional one does require soaking and grounding to thin batter. whereas with rice flour you can instantly prepare the thin batter by adding water and start pouring on the pan to prepare soft and tender dosa’s.
furthermore, some important tips, suggestions and variations while preparing neer dosa recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend using sona masuri or idli rice for this recipe. i would refrain from using basmati rice and you may not have the same tenderness and softness with the dosa. secondly, i would rerecord to use non-stick pan, preferably with long edges for this recipe (as shown in the video). cast iron tawa can also be used, but it may turn out to be a crisp dosa, which is not a typical feature of neer dose. also adding coconut while blending is optional, dose can be prepared just with rice. lastly, serve these dosa’s immediately while it is warm and soft.
