Ankaliya… Rice crepe.

Ankaliya or rice crepe/ dosa from the Himachali cuisine is unreceptive to the Neer dosa made lanugo South. The Himachalis use a special earthen pot with a spout to pour the thrash unlike in the South where it is splashed on to the pan. Soft, porous and light, they are served with a curry or pickle of choice. I preferred to serve them with a untried dank pickle.

Ingredients:

250 gms rice flour

Salt

Water to make the batter.

Method:

Tip the rice flour into a bowl. Add water a little at a time to make a thrash of flowing consistency. Heat a griddle/ tava. Drizzle a little oil and skim it all over the tava. Pour the thrash all over the tava. Allow the Ankaliya to roast. Fold and serve.

Note: this crepe is not flipped. It is so thin that it gets cooked roasted just on one side .
