Sasam is the Konkani name for Mustard seeds. Dodak is thick, unfermented dosa made of urad dal and semolina. Authentically, Sasama Dhodak is made in a bowl shaped pan/Kadhai. I tried it using a regular nonstick pan.
You can change the amount of Semolina and Urad dal as per your choice. Too much Semolina will make the dosa hard. You can also ferment the ground urad dal like a regular dosa, but do not add semolina and other ingredients for fermentation.
Ingredients:
Urad dal/Split Black Gram - 1 cup
Rava/Sooji/Semolina - 1 1/2 cup
Ginger - 1/2 inch piece
Green Chillies - 8
Coconut Slices - about 1/2 cup
Cumin/Jeera seeds - 1 tsp
Mustard Seeds
Salt
Oil
Method:
1. Soak urad dal in water for 30 - 45 min.
2. Wash urad dal well. Grind urad dal and green chillies into a fine paste.
3. Add semolina, salt, finely chopped ginger, cumin seeds and coconut slices to the batter.
4. Add water to soak the semolina. The batter is thicker in consistency.
5. Heat a pan and add about 1 tsp oil and about 1/4 tsp mustard seeds. (Be careful when the mustard seeds pop) When the seeds pop, add a ladle full of batter and spread it to form a round dosa.
6. Fry both sides using oil and serve Sasama dhodak with coconut chutney.
