  • Heat a pan and drizzle few drops of oil. 
  • Using a kitchen tissue or a piece of onion smear the oil all over the pan. 
  • Wipe off excess oil with a kitchen tissue. 
  • When the pan is hot enough, stir the batter well from the bottom. 
  • Take a ladle full of batter and pour it over the tawa in a circle. 
  • Tilt the pan to spread the excess batter all over. 
  • Do not spread the batter like regular dosa batter. 
  • Fill any gaps in the dosa to make it even. 
  • Cover it with a lid and cook for 2 to 3 mins until the top part turns non-sticky meaning it is cooked. 
  • Continue to cook until you see the sides come off easily from the pan. 
  • Take the dosa to a plate. 
  • Serve neer dosa with chutney or curry. 
  • To make the next dosa, repeat greasing the pan with oil. 
  • Stir the batter every time you make a fresh neer dosa as the bottom part of the batter will be thick.
