Rava dosa recipe, How to make instant rava dosa

Rava dosa is a crispy Indian crepe made with rava and rice flour. This is an instant recipe and requires no pre preparation and has very simple ingredients in its making. I was so keen to learn about rava dosa making when I started cooking as I have 2 important people in my life who like rava dosa that’s my hubby and dad so this recipe is close to my heart. I prepare rava dosa with kadappa gravy as side accompany as I am used to it but it tastes well with sambar and chutney as well. So lets get to the making!
