Chhita Pitha

Today's special breakfast of our home.... Chhita pitha..... I dont know how many of you might have heard this name before..... When you look at the snap of the food you may think it is rava dosa.... But i havent added sooji/ rava..... This is Very simple, easy Bangladesh recipe.... As all of you know Bangladesh is a country which is part of India earlier... So their food habits almost similar to ours... That too they use rice flour more like South Indians in their breakfast or dinner varieties.... 



For one cup of rice flour ,  add 1/4 cup of maida ( plain flour), salt, two cups of water ( increase of decrease depending on nature of flour)...mix all... Batter should be thin and bit watery like we have for rava dosa....i made this dosa by dipping my fingers in batter and sprinkling on the tawa....Like this four times dip fingers and sprinkle batter all around tawa....If you are not comfortable to use hands can try to ladle too... Better use Iron dosa tava or pan.... Traditional they use clay utensils...... Can use non stick too but sure there will be difference of taste.... Iron tawa gives more crispiness and taste.. Main advantage of this dish is we dont add oil to make crispy dosa...... Oil used just for greasing tava....

Before making pitha, grease tawa with oil well.... No need to add oil while preparing dosa... After making every pitha, grease oil in the tawa with cloth or anything u use .... Dont flip the dosa.... When making dosa tawa should be hot and flame should be in sim while cooking....

If you dont like crispier version, replace water with lukewarm water... You will get soft white pithas...
