jaggery dosa is a sweet South Indian style dosa which can be served as a Breakfast or Evening Tea Snack. Learn how to make instant wheat flour jaggery dosa.
To make jaggery dosa, combine jaggery, rice flour, whole wheat flour, cardamom powder and coconut in a deep bowl, add 2 cups of warm water and mix well using a whisk to form a batter of the pouring consistency. Cover with a lid, keep aside for 10 minutes and mix very well. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and grease it lightly using a little ghee. Pour a ladleful of the batter on it and spread it evenly in a circular motion to make 200 mm. (8”) diameter round circle. Smear a little ghee over it and along the edges and cook on a medium flame till the dosa turns brown in colour from both the sides. Fold it over to make a semi-circle. Serve immediately.
Easy and quick vella dosa made with a combination of flours and jaggery, perked up with grated coconut and spiced up with cardamom! The pleasantly sweet aroma of the dosa being cooked on the hot tava is sure to bring all the family members on the dining table.
An easy-to-prepare yet rich preparation, this Indian style rice jaggery dosa is only mildly sweet, so can be served as a teatime snack. This is fit for even a grand dinner menu if you could make a nice sweet and savoury dosa platter by serving this with regular dosa, masala dosa or uttapa.
One good thing about the instant wheat flour jaggery dosa is that it does not require any fermentation, so you can make it quickly anytime you need – say, when your kids come back home hungry.
Tips for jaggery dosa. 1. Grate the jaggery finely as it has to melt with the warm water. Thickly grated or chopped might lead to lump formation. 2. A pinch of salt in this sweet preparation would further enhance its taste. 3. Remember that it must be had immediately before it hardens.

This dosa is so delicious. More than what i expected. The jaggery is just perfect in the quantity. it is not too sweet also. The dosa are so soft that they just melt in the mouth. The best part is it does not require fermenting nor it uses plain flour. The combination of rice flour and whole wheat flour is a hit for sure.
