Orange Rava Dosa

One day I tried to make orange juice in a weird way. I took out orange wedges, put in the blender and blended finely. Then filtered it to extract juice, but could get only a glass full of juice with so many oranges and more of orange pulp. I didn't want to waste the orange pulp, so thought of using it in some recipe and stored it in the refrigerator for a day. The next day I got the idea of making dosas with the pulp. DH and kids laughed at the idea of an orange dosa, but they agreed that it tasted great when I made it.

Ingredients: 1 cup Rice Flour 1 cup Semolina 1 cup Orange Pulp 3 or 4 Green Chilies Few Curry Leaves Few Cilantro Leaves 1 tsp Cumin Seeds Salt Oil Preparation: First grind green chilies + curry leaves + cilantro into a fine paste. Keep aside. In a wide bowl mix together rice flour + semolina + orange pulp + cumin seeds and make into a thin batter. Add salt as required.  The batter should be pouring consistency. Add the green chili paste to the batter and mix well. Heat a non-stick pan. Then take a ladleful of batter, first pour around the edges of the pan in a circle and quickly fill in the circle to make it into a big circle.  Pour some oil around the dosa and let the dosa cook for a while.  Then flip it over and pour some more oil (optional).  When it is cooked on both sides, remove from the pan and transfer to a serving plate. Repeat the same process until required amount of dosas are done.  We enjoyed our dosas with Peanut Chutney.  Yummy!!
