ORATI
Just to share with you……..
This orati is a recipe made of plain rice flour which we get in Indian grocery. This I learned from Rajesh anna’s wife Priya anni. Their native is Nagercoil. Hope this is a nagercovil side recipe since I haven’t heard it in my side and even in chennai side also. This is very simple to make. I can say this as aki roti/ rice roti but this is very thin and have to make like dosa size. This goes very well with Mutton curry mae with coconut milk which is again a Nagerkovil recipe. With that curry it tastes like Parotta. I will post that mutton curry also. This orati and Mutton milk curry is my hubby’s favourite . Whenever we used to go to my brother’s place we will this atleast once. Simple and Delicious Recipe.

-
Take a small ball size dough and keep pressing with hand on the paper and try to spread as thin as you can. (you can make thin like roast).
-
Heat the dosa tava. Apply little oil and put the paper on the tava with paper on the upper side. With in few seconds you will be able to take out the paper since it will start coming out automatically.
-
Cook both sides until it is done. It goes very well with Mutton curry.
Tips
While spreading the dough on the paper try tp spread the full space you can streach little outside also. By doing this while putting on tava you can avoid the paper getting burnt. If you leave the paper plain and if the spreaded size is less than paper size while putting upsie down the plain paper will get heat directly and will start burning.

Hi,
For the receipe ‘orati’ , we may need some side dish. Usually in our home, we make this batter, after that put little oil on pad, after it gets heated, add mustard,red chilli, urad dal, curry leaves, Asafoetida. spread it on the batter and mix well. know put the batter on the tava as u said. even u can use cotton clothes for spreading instead of plastic cover. Well this tastes good; doesn’t need side dish too.
