Panpole /Pola Recipe /Neer Dosa Recipe .

Pole /Pola /Neer dosa /Ghavan  or panpole whatever you name it .Pole/Pola as we call it home is a lacy spongy dosa or crepe made with rice and  coconut .Panpole/Pola/Neer Dosa  green Chutney is a yummy breakfast combo and my all time favourite Sunday breakfast fare .
We enjoy pole or pola with our chicken or any non veg curries  the recipe is simple and the steps are easy to follow .Pole or pola are made on iron tava / griddle also called khapri in our dialect .But not to worry you may use a good non stick dosa tava or a normal frying pan as well .

We  East Indians make another version of pola that we call Chittaps  which is quite similar to this will share it too on the blog .For now try these yummy soft lacy pola /neer dosa .enjoy it with your Chutney or any veg or non veg curries..


Ingredients
1 cup kolam or  sona masuri
(I use 3/4 cup kolam and 1/4 cup ukda or boiled idli rice)
1/2 cup grated coconut
2 tbsp cooked rice .
1 tsp sugar (optional )
Salt as needed
Oil to smear the pan.

Method.
Wash the rice and soak it for 6 to 7 hours or overnight
Next morning grind the soaked rice along with Coconut and cooked rice to a smooth batter .
Add salt and 1 tsp sugar and mix well .

Add water and make a thin batter like buttermilk consistency.

Heat a griddle/skillet/ tava .Prick onion with fork or knife and dip it in oil and smear the pan alternatively you can just brush a little oil.
 Once hot take the batter in a ladle and pour from height spread it all over to get the hole or lacy effect.

 Cook over medium flame cover with the lid
Do not flip
Remove it in a plate or banana leaf. Let it cool then fold it.
Serve with Coconut Chutney or any veg or non veg curries.
 notes
You can use any short grain rice or idli rice .
Adding cooked rice gives softer polas/ neer dosa skip if you feel .
The batter consistency is very important it should be thin else the lacy effect won't come .
If your tava or pan is not hot the dosa won't have the holes , make sure it's hot and  you pour the batter from a little light and spread it over the pan you should hear a sizzle sound which means the temperature of the tava is perfect for the polas/neer dosa.
