Odia rice-lentil pancake, the dosa's Odia twin. The batter does the work; the pan does the magic. Classic sides: molaga podi with sesame oil, and a bowl of sambar.

Ingredients

Saltto taste
Ginger1-inch piece
Green Chili2
Urad Dal1 cup, chopped
Mustard Seeds1/2 tsp
Curry Leaves2 sprigs
Asafoetidaa pinch
Coconut Oil2 tbsp
Rice Flour1 cup

Instructions

1
Soak the rice and urad dal (with fenugreek seeds) separately for 4-6 hours, then grind each to a smooth batter with cold water, combine and ferment overnight.
2
Loosen the batter to pouring consistency — think thick pancake batter, not glue.
3
Heat a cast-iron tawa or paniyaram pan over medium; a drop of water should dance and vanish.
4
Spoon the batter in, swirl or shape quickly, and let it set undisturbed for two minutes.
5
Wait for the edges to lift on their own, then flip for a minute more; serve hot with chutney and sambar.

Chef's tip

A final squeeze of lemon or lime right before serving wakes up every other flavour.
