GODU GOVA POLO(SWEET DOSA)

GODU GOVA POLO(SWEET DOSA)

Ingredients.

wheat flour-2cups,

jaggery powder- 1cup,

Plantain/jackfruit(smashed)- 1 cup,

salt-1/8tsp,

cardamom powder-1tsp,

coconut scrapings-1/2 cup and

ghee for roasting dosa.

Method:

Dissolve jaggery in a cup of water. Add salt and wheat flour and make a batter as like the dosa consistancy.

Add   coconut scrapings , cardamom powder and the mashed fruit and mix well.

Heat tawa and bring  it to medium fire. Smear ghee on the tawa and pour one laddle of batter and spread it like a thick  dosa.

Once the top is cooked, splash a few drops of ghee and then turn it upside down and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.

The flavour of the dosa is so appealing and can be smelt across the whole house that nobody needs to call the members of the house-hold for partaking it.

Variation:

In the above procedure, instead of adding the mashed fruit and the coconut scrapings  in the batter, prepare a mixture of the two said items and stuff  inside the dosa and roast  on a low fire.  After the plain dosa is ready, fill some of the mixture and fold both sides, turn upside down and roast again adding little more ghee on sides. The dosa can be thin in this case.
