Steps

1

Wash the rice, soak the rice in water for 4-5 hrs. If the rice is looking dry add more water.
2

Wash the split black lentils and soak them in water separately for 4-5 hrs. Add more water if required.
3

Drain excess water from the soaked rice and split black lentils. Combine them into a blender and grind until a smooth, soft batter is formed.
4

Allow the batter to ferment for 6-8 hrs. It may take longer if your climate is cold.
5

Remove a cup of fermented batter, add little salt and little water to dilute the batter. Store the rest in freezer for later use.
6

Place a pan over the heat. Grease the pan with oil.
7

Once the pan is hot, add a scoopful of dosa batter towards the center. Now spread the batter in a circular motion from the center towards the edges using a small bowl.
8

Sprinkle and spread some oil over the dosa.
9

Spread some grated cheese, and onion at the center of the dosa. Wait for the cheese to melt.
10

Fold the dosa into a triangular shape so that the cheese in the centeris covered and then flip the dosa. Else the cheese would get stuck to the pan.
11

Now add some grated cheese, chilly flakes, and oregano spice mix on the other side.
12

Serve the dosa hot with tomato ketchup(I've used Indian lime pickle here).
