  8. add water in parts and grind to a smooth batter. a rava like grainy consistency of the rice is also fine. i ground in two parts. in the first part i added ½ cup water and in the second part, i added ¼ cup water. so overall used ¾ cup water for grinding.

  8. flip the dosa. cook for some seconds or a minute and then fold.
