Kids are always fascinated by shapes. So is Aj. Triangle paratha, square paratha, cone dosa, mini idli, mini poori are few of his routine demands. When I posted tiffin sambar recipe, I had few requests from friends and readers to do a tutorial how to make cone dosa, so here it is at last, with a video to help understand easily.
How to make cone Shaped Dosa
Refer this post for Idli dosa Batter recipe and how to make Crispy Plain dosa
Method
- Make thin dosa as we do for making plain roast dosa, do not flip, since the dosa is thin, it will get cooked. Cook in medium flame to make sure its crisp. Once started browning, use a clean kitchen scissors to cut the dosa until the middle of the dosa.
- Using a tong or ur hands, carefully roll the dosa as show in the picture or please refer the video.
- Doing over the tawa itself saves time and easy to roll and maintains the shape as well. But the dosa has to be crisp enough to hold the shape.
Notes
- Make the dosa batter thinner with 3-4 tblsp of water to get thin roast dosa.
- If the dosa comes out crispy then only you can make it hold the shape.
- Use oil or ghee while cooking to get crispier dosa.
- You can use your dosa flipping spatula itself to cut the dosa.
Enjoy hot with chutney or sambar 🙂

February 27, 2013 at 4:42 pmmy aunt used to make this when I was young to make me eat more dosas 🙂 She sometimes used to place a small cube of salted butter at the tip of the cone which would melt slowly and taste awesome. You can try that for kids 🙂

February 27, 2013 at 5:07 pmWhat kind of Tawa do you use? It looks like Cast iron- or is it no stick. It looks ideal for dosa being flat.
