Cook the Rava Dosa
Fold and Serve
Replace the eggs with a tofu scramble (crumbled tofu sautéed with onions, turmeric, and spices) and use a plant-based yogurt or skip the curd in the batter.

Add 1/4 cup of finely grated carrots or chopped onions directly into the dosa batter for extra flavor and nutrition.

You can prepare the batter mix (the dry flours and spices) in advance. However, it's best to add water and let it rest just 30 minutes before you plan to make the dosas. If left for too long after adding water, it can become too fermented.
