Ask a question about this stepHeat a non stick griddle or frying pan over medium –low heat Spread about ¼ teaspoon of oil evenly over the griddle Ladle ½ to ¼ cup of the batter into the center of the hot griddle and using the back of the ladle steadily spread the batter in a circular motion from the center out. creating a thin pancake .As a crepe is cooks, small holes will form on the surface .Sprinkle a few drops of ghee on topto help make it crisp. When bottom turn golden brown(you can find in my picture).Fold the crepe in half golden side out and take out. Oiling the griddle each time. Serve hot. Now if you want to make a Masala dosa Place the filling in the center and fold as pan roll. If you spill little grated cheese over the pancake with the filling it is very extremely tasty my wife’s favorite.
