Its been many days since i shared some dosa recipe , right ? So today i have for you all one special variety of dosa from Karnataka which i am sure is a favorite for most . Soft , spongy and porous these ” Set Dosas ” are one of the hot selling dish in restuarants in Bangalore. Served with sagu / kurma along with coconut chutney .. they taste just awesome and one of my all time favorites.
Usually in hotels , 3-4 set dosas are stacked and served , hence the name ” Set Dosa ” .Unlike regular dosas , set dosas are small in size , soft and fluffy in texture . Few people call them sponge dosa too as they are very soft and remain so even after few hours .So it makes a good option for lunch box too.
Check Out the Video recipe here :
Few points to note while making Set Dosa Recipe :
- Addition of sabudana is optional . But recommended . It makes dosa more fluffy .
- Don’t forget to grind the batter thick only . i have observed usually this dosa batter gets thinner and thinner as the batter ferments . So better to grind thick and later add water i required .
- In spite of taking care , if the dosa batter has turned thin next morning after fermenting , add little rice flour to fix it.
- I usually don’t add cooking soda to any of my dosa s except set dosa. It comes out best after adding soda. However if you want to omit , you can , but i wouldn’t suggest .
- Better the fermentation , fluffier the dosa.
- Remember when you pour set dosa batter on the tawa , don’t spread in concentric circles like regular dosa. Just pour a laddle of batter and leave like thick pancake. This will make them porous.
- While cooking these set dosas you can cook one side or both ways .It is up to you
Making this restaurant style set dosa at home is so easy . Do try and be prepared to receive loads of accolades and Yes don’t forget to share your feedback with me later !! Here you go…

Raw rice means the rice that we use for our daily cooking right? It is not Idli rice?

I made this. Though it was not as fluffy as what is made in Adiga/MTR hotels, but it turned out pretty good. Everyone like it.
