Cucumber Neer Dosa Recipe-Rice Pancake

Step 1: To begin making the Cucumber Neer Dosa Recipe, wash the rice and soak it in water for 2 hours

Step 2: Grind the coconut and cucumber in a mixer to a smooth paste

Step 3: Next grind the rice separately by adding 1/2 cup water into a very smooth paste

Step 4: Mix rice and cucumber batters together in one bowl and season with salt

Step 5: If the batter is too thick add enough water such that the dosa batter has a smooth flowing consistency

Step 6: The consistency of the batter should be such that the batter has a very thin coating at the back of the spoon and not a thick coating

Step 7: If it forms a thick later, then the you need to add a little more water

Step 8: Check the salt levels again and adjust to suit your taste

Step 9: Cucumber Neer Dosa batter is now readyNeer Dosa is made very similar to the Rava Dosa

Step 10: To make the Neer Dosa, we don’t spread it on the pan like a regular dosa

Step 11: We pour the dosa batter on the hot pan and it will spread itself creating holes

Step 12: Note: It is a good idea to use an iron pan, as the texture and the softness of the dosa comes out perfectly with an iron pan

Step 13: To begin, make sure you have a greased and seasoned iron pan

Step 14: Grease and preheat the iron pan until it is sizzling hot

Step 15: When you sprinkle water on the pan; the water will sizzle and evaporate

Step 16: Once you have the right heat on the pan; pour a ladle of the batter in a circular motion starting from the outer edges

Step 17: The batter will sizzle and flow to spread itself

Step 18: Fill in the batter where there are gap, but do allow the dosa to have a few tiny holes

Step 19: There is no need to sprinkle oil to cook the Neer Dosa

Step 20: Neer Dosa cooks very quickly; when you notice the top of the dosa is no longer raw, the Neer Dosa is cooked and has a rich white colour

Step 21: The cooking process will take less than 30 seconds per dosa

Step 22: Slide a flat spatula from the sides of the pan and fold the Neer Dosa into a half and then into another half to form a triangle

Step 23: Place the Neer dosa on a platter and continue to make Neer Dosa’s the similar way

Step 24: Make sure you place the Neer Dosa’s away from each other when they are hot; as they tend to stick to each other

Step 25: Once they cool down, you can place them one on top of the other; into a covered bowl and serve warm

Step 26: Serve the Cucumber Neer Dosa Recipe with Kori Gassi and end it with a dessert  Konkani Style Mande/Mandige/Chavde Recipe
