Dosa is one of the most famous breakfast dishes enjoyed by most of us. While we love watching the art of making dosa at restaurants, but when it comes to making it at home, many of us fail to get it right. According to celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor, it happens because of 6 common mistakes that we commit. In a recent video on Instagram, he addressed the mistakes and also shared the remedies.
Scroll down to read the details.
Mistake 1: Greasing a nonstick tawa with onions and oilChef Sanjeev advises against greasing the nonstick tawa with onions and oil. Dosa pans are already treated and are non-stick, so dosas made on them easily leave the pan without extra greasing.

Mistake 2: Pouring the batter on a very hot tawaRight temperature of tawa plays an important role in making dosa. Hence, it is important to assure that the tawa is neither too hot nor too cold. Chef Sanjeev suggests always keeping the flame on medium and then spreading the dosa batter over it.

Mistake 4:Consistency of the batterChef Sanjeev suggests avoiding a very thick or runny batter. According to him, the dosa batter should be of medium thickness and allowing it to rest before making dosa is also very important.
Mistake 5: Not fermenting the batterAs per chef Sanjeev, it is important to let the dosa batter ferment, and then only will you get the right taste and texture. Using the batter right after blending the ingredients won’t give you a perfect dosa.
