Food for thought

Heres a 'easy' guide to dosa preperation:
Step 1: get the batter from the shop/ask someone to prepare it( in my case, my sis did it )
Step 2 : choosing the 'tava ' ..now this is crucial because it has a high impact on the geometry of dosa.There were couple of tavas at my place :
1. simple plain one.
2. one with lots of small cup like indentation all over it ..similar to the texture of baseball surface
My choice : 1
Reason : Tava 1 was already neatly washed and while tava 2 needed some thorough cleaning with pril solution :D
Step 3:put the tava on a heat source and invoke the 'agni' on it ...roam around till it becomes red hot..this might take a couple of min.
Step 4 :keep bugging(tale tinnodu) someone for instructions continuously so that the poor soul will prepare it for u.
Enjoy the dosa .
Hard work always pays off !! :P
Moralof the story : There is nothing complicated in this world.All u need to do is apply your mind.
