      Ingredients

      1/2 lb or 1 cup Uradhall flour
      1 lb or 2 cups white rice flour

      salt to taste

      a pinch of saffron


      Method

      Mix all ingredients and cover and keep aside for at least one hour.
      The batter should not be too thick. Almost like a pancake consistency.
      (add water as needed)

      OPTIONAL:
      Saute a chopped onoin, curry leaves, chopped green chilli and a few
      fenugreek seeds.

      Mix the above to the batter. Heat a griddle until very hot.
      Apply a LITTLE oil with a pastry brush.Pour about 1/4 cup of the
      batter onto the griddle and spread it around with the back of a
      spoon. Flip over and cook the other side. Always wipe griddle
      with oil before each thosai. The prepared thosais could be kept
      in a 250C oven covered.

      Serve with your favorite meat or fish curry and chutney.
