Here's how you can prepare bun dosa
- First, take a bowl with puffed rice (murmura) in it. Grind the murmura and convert it into a powdered form.
- Mix suji (rava) and dahi into the powdered murmura. Add salt as per your taste and start blending it all well.
- You can use some water if you want. Do not pour a lot of water in one go. Keep adding little quantities and continue mixing until it gets the consistency of a batter. Cover it with a lid and let it rest for about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare a delicious chutney. For this, take a grinding jar - put finely chopped green chillies, roasted peanuts, garlic cloves, desiccated coconut powder, and green coriander leaves followed by fresh curd. In the end, add salt and turn it into a paste. Chutney is ready.
- Add a tadka to the chutney to enhance its taste. For this, take a tadka pan and heat some oil it. Add the mustard seeds followed by urad dal and curry leaves. Mix well. Add a pinch of hing and pour the tadka on the chutney.
- Check the murmura batter you had prepared. You need to add tadka to the batter. Heat some oil in a separate tadka pan, add mustard seeds, urad dal, green chillies and chopped curry leaves. Mix them well. Once done, add the tadka to the batter. Add ENO to the batter, and put a little bit of water on it to activate it. Mix the batter well.
- For bun dosa, take a pan, kadhai or tawa, and grease it with some oil. Once, the pan is heated, pour a ladle full of batter in the centre of the pan. You'll notice that it'll automatically spread a little in the circular shape.
- Cover the pan with a lid and let the bun dosa cook for a couple of minutes. Once, it's done, flip it and follow the same process for the other side. Cook both sides until they turn golden brown. Prepare as many bun dosas as you want.
- Serve hot with the chutney.
