Notes

You can use any type of pulses or grains while making the dosa. I add depending on availability in my pantry.
You can add dals too but generally I make dal dosa separately so won't add much here expect green moong dal.
You can make dosa without fermentation too but fermented dosa taste much better and good.
I always add salt before fermentation. But you can add later while making too
Add water as required to adjust the consistency of the dosa batter.
You can replace idli rice with millets too if you want to completely skip rice. I have tried and it works good.
Fermentation time of the batter depends on the climate. So always check the batter and decide rather than fixed time.
You can use mixer or grinder to grind the batter. Mixer is easier compared to grinder.
You can make different types of dosa like ghee roast, paper roast, masala dosa, podi dosa, onion dosa etc or even uttapam or paniyaram with the same batter.
