Heat tava/griddle to smoking hot. Pour a ladleful of batter on the tava and start spreading the batter in circular motion to form a round and thin dosa. Drizzle a tsp of oil/ghee/butter and cook it for about 2 to 3 minutes on a medium hot flame. When the dosa is cooked up to golden colour serve immedietly with any chutney of your choice. I served this dosa with Dill Chutney.

My Cake Decorations

Baking cakes and frosting them for special occasions has been a small sweet tradition that I have followed and I look forward to such occasions like birthdays, anniversary or Christmas. Recently I have seen several posts with photos of cake decoration. So I thought I would add some of my decorations here!!! Please remember I am not a trained cake decorator and have not taken any cake decorating courses. I have learned by trial and error and these are definitely not “the perfect ones", so please do not view these photos from expert’s eyes!!!!
