Instant Oat dosa is an easy recipe that is perfect for busy families. Sometimes you want to make something that is easy and hassle free and of course healthy. Oat dosas are instant dosas and make a great breakfast or any time snack. This gluten-free dish is made with oats, rice flour, yogurt, and a few spices. I am also adding cabbage and carrots for texture. This will definitely be a staple in my house.
This recipe will serve 2.
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/2 cup yogurt whipped
- 1/8 teaspoon asafetida
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 green chili finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon cilantro finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger finely shredded
- 1/3 cup cabbage shredded
- 1/3 cup carrot shredded
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- 1-1/2 teaspoon ENO
- 1-1/2 tablespoons oil
Method
- Grind oats to make fine powder. Add all the dry ingredients except ENO rice flour, asafetida, salt, and cumin seeds mix it well. Notes: ENO is added just before making dosa.
- Add yogurt mix, add water as needed to make batter consistency of dosa or pancake mix. Set aside for about fifteen minutes.
- Add green chilies, cilantro, cabbage and carrots mix it well.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Grease the skillet lightly. Test by sprinkling a few drops of water on it. The water should sizzle right away.
- In a small bowl take about ½ cup of batter and add ¼ teaspoon of ENO mix it well batter will become little frothy.
- Pour the batter mixture into the skillet and spread evenly with the back of a spoon, about seven inches in diameter.
- When the batter begins to dry, gently spread one teaspoon of oil over it. Wait about 30 seconds, then flip the dosa using a flat spatula.
- Press the dosa lightly with the spatula all around to assure even cooking, turning two to three times. Dosa should be golden brown on both sides.
- Repeat for the remaining dosas.
- Serve oat dosa with your choice of chutney, I like with tomato chutney.
Hi Manjilaben we tried your oats and rice flour dosas and they were delicious ? we liked it very much and the family did too ?
Thank you
Hello Manjula Aunty, is there any alternative for rice flour here, I can not find rice flour with my grocery shop
I tried this today and it was very tasty !! Thanks so much Manjula Aunty !! You are a passionate cook … keep up the great work … I have learnt a lot from you !!
Thank you so much for this delicious way to start the day. I am in love with your recipes and videos. The spicing is beautiful and not overly complicated. Plus you have some types of recipes I have never seen like from Rajasthan. Also I love the gluten free options. My husband had his gall bladder removed so I reduce the oil or bake some items instead of frying. Thanks again!!
Hi ! this is a fantastic recipe ! The family loved it, thank you so much for all your great videos, I have tried so many of your recipes already…. always a great success !
Anne, thank you, makes me happy to hear that
Is this really a gluten free recipe? Aren’t instant oats glutenous?
Rachna, oats should be gluten free,
Hi Manjula, i would like to have your recipes in portuguese becouse i don’t speak enghish very well. What can i do??? Please answer me. Thanks a lot. Norma Braga from Brasil, Rio de Janeiro.
Hello,
I live in Holland and I cannot find ENO, could I bake the dosas without this ingredient? Pls reply, thanks.
Marise, use pinch of baking soda, and few drops of lemon juice it is not same but this will work.
Hi Manjula, this isn’t gluten free dear, oats contain gluten. Thanks for all the recipes, we have been enjoying them for years now.
In the USA oats are considered gluten free while in other countries they aren’t or are very difficult to find without wheat contamination. I would be interested in knowing if there is a gluten free substitute for quick oats because I see them everywhere in recipes but I can’t use them (if I want the dish to be gluten free for coeliacs).
You can buy gluten free oats in the free from aisle
Hello Madam,
Tks so much for that tip; I made it today, substituting carrots and cabbage with chopped kale and onions (as I did not have the former with me today) and it was really delicious. Thank you again.
I would like to have a baked version of chakli made with chickpea flour. I tried out some recipes that were on the web and they turned out to be very hard, not as soft as the normal chaklis. Await your recipe. Have a lovely weekend.
Such a brilliant way to make kids eat oats and veggies !
