    Dear Krishnamma,

    To be frank I don't liked to give dosa to my baby. Y because I don't wanted to use oil 4 her at this earlier age. But I donnow that I can give her with out oil...:goodidea:

    Next time I will give her using all veggies n with out oil by steam cooking as u guys advised...

    Really Krishnamma, my hubby is also like ur son Krishna... I just prepared the batter n thus he won't let me to make dosa any more... I forgot to tell u ..He himself preapared all dosas today ( He never tried to make before )...Me n my baby just sitting a side n enjoyed dosas... Ofcourse we all shared each n every dosa together..

    By the way my baby's name is Naina ... Naina Jaya Varshita...

    She has been walking for the last 2 months.Now she is walking too fast n keeps me very busy every min with her pretty notty things...

    Thanq u 4 ur sweet advices....

    Teja,

    Hi to both you and naina. i think right this point you will not need any dieting. walking and waking and watching her will keep fit and fighting. take care:2thumbsup: .

    P.S. whether it you or the hubby cooking, when the whole family, is there in the kitchen sitting on the counters and chairs and bantering and bonding is something to treasure.... and an experience priceless.

    Dear Shanthi,

    U r absolutely correct. Though I some times frustrated with her as she is throw away all the things n making messy messy messy I always find some joy with her activities n it gives me more energy to calm down....Actually this is most physically challenged work 4 me:exactly: ... As a mom I luv her naughtiness n surely is a lot of fun 4 us...

    Eating with my baby while husband is cooking is the best part 4 me in kitchen on some week ends. :thumbsup

    Thanq Shathi for ur frnly caring words ...

    Rawa Dosa - One more type


    Ingredients

    sooji / rawa - 1 cup

    green chilies – 4 - 5

    cumin seeds - half a tsp

    onions - 2 medium

    coriander - a small bunch

    curry leaves - a few

    coconut grating - about two tbsp.(optional)

    salt to taste.

    Ghee to make dosas


    Method

    Fry rawa like you would for upma. And allow it to cool a bit.

    (I fry rawa in big quantities and store for ready use. In fact, this prevents the rawa

    from getting spoilt/worms too.)

    Finely chop onions, green chilies & coriander and add it to the rawa.

    Add salt, cumin, curry leaves and required amount of water for dosa consistency

    & mix really well.

    After a few minutes you will notice that the batter absorbs water and becomes

    thicker.

    Add little more water and mix well till you get the right consistency.

    When the consistency is okay, start making dosas.

    Grease the tawa well. Add oil droplets to the dosa to cook it well on both sides.

    When the dosa starts browning faintly in patches, you know it's done.

    Just pour a little ghee on the dosa (sometimes it's okay to forget the calorie-

    count!):wink:
