Thin and delicate, almost like a handkerchief, these dosas (rice batter crepes) are easy to make with straightforward ingredients, and it's enjoyed as breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It comes from the Coastal city of Mangalore, Southern India. The word Neer means 'Water.' in my mother tongue Tulu, (one of the languages spoken in Mangalore) is made using soaked rice, freshly grated coconut and coconut milk made into a very thin batter and pan-fried. The batter is almost water-like consistency hence the name Neer Dosa. It goes perfectly well with many curries or tastes delicious with simple coconut chutney for breakfast. I love mine with red chilli and coconut chutney the way my mum made.

  3. Transfer to a bowl and using a ladle, stir well.
  4. Heat about 1/2 tsp coconut oil in a non-stick pan and spread evenly, using
    the ladle pour the batter in a splashing manner and immediately turn the
    pan around making sure you spread the batter all over.
  5. Let it cook for about two to three minutes on medium heat, no need to flip.
