Tapioca dosa


Tapioca / Kappa / Cassava is a very important source of carbohydrate in Kerala. And the most famous dish of Kappa is the steamed version served with a fiercely spicy curry usually made with fish.


Today we will make a dosa with tapioca. Dosa is usually made with rice and Urad dal, soaked in water and ground to a fine paste, fermented and then spread on a hot flat iron pan.

Tapioca dosa has rice, tapioca and coconut ground together and can be made immediately. no fermentation required. And it tastes very good without any accompaniments. I seved with Mango chutney, but that is not required.

Ingredients:

Rice - 3/4 cup soaked in water for 2 hours
Measure this quantity of soaked rice and take the same amount of raw Tapioca.
Coconut - 1/2 measures of the soaked rice quantity

Method:
Grind the rice into a fine paste and add the coconut and raw tapioca. Grind well.
Transfer to a vessel and add salt to taste.
Make dosa on a hot iron tava and use gingelly oil for cooking.
Serve HOT

Do not serve cold as it does not taste as good.
