Set Dosa Recipe | Sponge Dosa | How to Make Set Dose Recipe with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Dosas are the staple food in India and are mainly used for breakfast. Many different types of dosa across India differ in their shape, size, texture, and consistency. One such simple and easy dosa recipe from South India or Karnataka is the set dosa, also known as the set dose, which comes in aย batch of 3 dosas.

I am a big fan of dosa recipes, and it is a must-have meal for my morning breakfast on most days. I like crisp and roasted dosa recipes like masala dosaย orย rava dosa.ย But my husband likes the soft and spongy dosa, particularly the set dosa or poha dosa. During his early career days, he had breakfast in one of the Bangalore messes and developed a taste for it over there. He likes it with a big scoop of butter, coconut chutney and vegetable saagu. I want my dosa with simple chutney and lentil-based sambar, and thatโ€™s how we eat in my home, Udupi.ย But the Bangalore style serves it with kurma,ย and soft orย sponge dosa is ideal.

Before concluding the post, I would like to highlight some tips, suggestions and variations for a perfect set dosa recipe. Firstly, I used idli rice for this recipe, which yields a soft and spongy dosa. You can also use other rice variants like sona masuri, and you should get the same result. Secondly, fermentation is the key to a soft, spongy, light set dose recipe. If you are living in a cold and dry place, use the preheated oven, or you can use daylight. Lastly, do not let it ferment once the dosa batter is fermented and the salt is added.ย You can place the batter in theย fridge to preserve and stop the fermentation.

Notes

  • Firstly, if you use thick poha, soak it for at least 20 minutes.
  • Also, blend the batter to a smooth paste, adding water if required.
  • Additionally, the size of the dosa has to be small, or else it may break as it is very soft.
  • Finally,ย the set dosa recipe is very light, so you can easily have 3 dosas.
