This is an easy and tasty recipe to prepare. As the name suggests this can be prepared in a jiffy as fermentation is not needed. It is a combination of rava , rice flour and maida. The consistency of the batter and the way you pour the batter over the tawa, are the two most important things to be considered .Serve this Rava Dosa with Coconut chutney or sambar and enjoy :)

Heat a tawa, when it is hot enough pour two ladlefuls of batter in a circular manner. Drizzle oil along the edges and also in the holes of the dosa.(the tawa should be very hot while u are pouring the batter).

For a Slight variation I mixed a pinch of turmeric powder to this batter and that is what you see in the pic. above. Yellow colored Rava Dosa :)
Note:
The consistency of the batter is very important, it should be very thin.(watery and flowing)
The next most important note for a perfect rava dosa ,Keep the flame high,while pouring the batter and then reduce the flame ,apply oil .Allow it to cook. The same way should be followed for making dosa's with the remaining batter
Always stir the batter, before you pour it over the tawa.
If the dosa is very thin , no need to cook the other side.
you can also add chopped curry leaves and coriander leaves.
Before adding the onions and green chillies, you can also saute it and then add to the batter.
